Is it possible to override what GTK returns for parent and children, and check if there's an AX table row in that equation, and if so, either pass on to the parent of the table row, or the children of the table row? I ask because I fear that there's a lot of edge cases that rely on a table row for calculating or retrieving data.  A good example is rowIndexRange(). It seems the rowIndex() method is really good for that, but GTK code now has to do a lot of work to get that same information. 

In the Mac wrapper we do something similar when handling attachments. For children and parents, we check if there's an attachmentView and if there, we do something different. 

I also think that change may be a lot less code

I don't think this change needs to be platform dependent. I think the accessibilityIsIgnored() check covers the platform dependentness.
