More scribble and thinking out loud than focused comment...

If word/voice and gesture/touch support were added, there would need to be a
way for authors to provide multiple suggestion sets.

Comma separated sets of space separated values?
<button accesskey="a b c, alpha beta gamma">Foo</button>

Separate attributes?
<button accesskey="a b c" accessvoice="alpha beta gamma"
accesstouch="tap">Foo</button>

It intuitively feels like there might be some overlap/connection into
IndieUI with this. Not familiar enough with IndieUI to offer any more on
that possibility though.

Also wondering about use cases for other forms of interaction? For example
the ability to move to the next/previous element/object - as is possible
with the JavaScript driven shortcuts provided by Google/Gmail for example.
Is this something a re-engineered accesskey could support?
