Not sure how feasible this is while Files has views that use a CellLayout to display the file items with CellRenderers - the individual file items are not GObjects so do not implement the accessible interface. This will change once we start using the new dynamic views as then fileitems will be displayed by individual widgets which will implement that interface.
