I have checked with a vanilla reinstall of Debian 9, using the Mate
desktop, and Qt 5.7.1.

When QT_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY_ALWAYS_ON is not set, I don't see Qt
applications in accerciser, only the Mate applications. If I set
QT_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY_ALWAYS_ON, I do see them.

On my current desktop, I have Qt 5.9.1, I made quick tests, it seems
it behaves as I expect, so perhaps we can indeed avoid setting
QT_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY_ALWAYS_ON now. I'll retest with a vanilla
reinstall of debian testing, to be sure.
