If the answer is, YES, then the problems evolves to
is it there a way to query the system (X server ? Who else ?) what is
the topmost (active desktop, foreground) graphical element at given
mouse coordinates ? Are list boxes standard enough to be accessed in a
fairly portable way disregarding the many different graphic engines
(QT, GTK or else) and DM (I have XFCE, but there are plenty of), so to
locate the strings arrays ?

In terms of in-memory representation, no, they are totally different.

One way to programmatically interact with a GUI application from
‘outside’ is via Accesibility APIs.
https://fedoramagazine.org/automation-through-accessibility/ is an
example. I’ve no idea how standardized this is between different GUI
toolkits.
