Your GPS can't tell you whether you're straight and level, only whether
you're straight. Agreed. But if the GPS says I'm straight (over a 10 second average) and the accelerometer says the roll axis vector is pointed toward the floor of the aircraft, then it seems to me I'm straight (otherwise the heading would be changing) and level - since if there is no heading change the only vector remaining is G.
