I too agree on doing away with the glittering stuff (sparkles:)

Should an AT traverse the whole tree (starting from root) and cache the
entire (ATK) info about the app? I would assume that the atk object
would be created only if it's required by the AT (like for e.g., create
atk object only when the focus moves to a widget via mouse/keyboard).

Can you please clarify on this?

Cheers,
Mukund.
