Since platform accessibility software only interacts with the main
process there's no reason to do platform specific things in the content
processes.  Eventually we should also be able to only create generic
accessibles that don't use the platform wrapper classes, but that will
take more work so we'll keep creating them in the content processes for
now.

it'd be nice to have IsDefaultProces() helper

I considered that too but I sort of like it raw.

I'd say IsMainProcess or something would make more sense, but I'd say it makes sense to add such a function to nsXULAppAPI.h.  If you want to add such a function there fine, but I don't really think its worth the time.

this one is also good with me

sure, I didn't mean to put it into a11y :)
