Checked magnifier under Windows. Works ok for DlangUI apps built 
with OpenGL support as well as software renderer 
(configuration="minimal").
If OpenGL is stopper for magnifier on other platforms, it's 
possible to try minimal configuration.

Currently DlangUI does not support screen readers.
I'm not sure what is API to support screen readers.
If there should be ability to get control text from window by X,Y 
- it can be added easy.
