You'll have to use accessibility toolkits such as at-spi to get this 
sort of information. As Glynn said, X has no idea what is being drawn 
inside windows (X almost only knows about pixels, graphics-wise).

You should take a look at projects such as Orca (a screen-reader) and 
Accerciser (an a11y explorer).

Hope that helps.
