I'd only call it partially accessible under Linux. After all, Audacity
has lots of unknown panels and elements and is WX-based. Not sure if
that is Audacity's issue or WX's.

All I can think to do is to go with something like the MVC pattern,
using a very heavy M and platform-specific VCs based on whatever is most
accessible for that platform. It isn't the *most* ideal solution, but
it's probably the most accessible.
