Maybe thinking about other things such as having the right hooks for tools, accessibility (in the sense of being easy to learn) and other things - although not mobile specific - might be worth thinking about?

Absolutely. Given that all UAs support developer tools, WGs should be encouraged to think about the developer experience and provide guidance for developer tools intermixed with algorithmic conformance requirements. However, UAs compete on developer tools so I would not want specs to be overly prescriptive.
