The main problem with this is that IIOP is primarily designed for *networked* procedure calls, while the primary use case for DCOP/DBUS is IPC between processes running on the *same machine*.

Using a fundamentally network-oriented framework such as CORBA as transport for an accessibility toolkit (the most local thing you could imagine) indeed appears as, hmm, a bit of a strange idea. You'd think the pain of developping against GNOME's CORBA madness of an API would have taught a lesson or two...
