Howdy,

i made OCRdesktop for cases like this. of course it cannot replace an 
native accessibility stack support. but it makes apps somewhat "useable".
Project page:
https://linux-a11y.org/index.php?page=ocrdesktop
wiki:
https://wiki.linux-a11y.org/doku.php?id=ocrdesktop
source:
https://github.com/chrys87/ocrdesktop

for archlinux its in the AUR.

cheers chrys
