While I am super-excited about the progress we're making on the
Personalization front, I come up short of expecting to see much, if any, of
that added to WCAG (or Silver) as mandated requirements any time soon. We
have little-to-no tooling today (at both the consuming and authoring end),
virtually zero implementation experience, and (honestly) I don't think
we'll ever see much of it adopted a scale: we might see a subset (action,
destination, purpose), but (for example) I simply do not see the local
pizzeria adding data-symbol to their local "order a pizza" website,
no matter how beneficial it would be, at least not any time soon. (I do,
however, see this being taken up with IoT interfaces, which have limited
and relatively static content anyway. But for mass-market, broad
consumption web content that is published dynamically - news sites for
example (which today often suffer from sprellig mistrakes) - I simply do
not see those sites doing all of the extra authoring work required.)

I've long held that for much of the groundwork we are laying, it will fall
to proxy (site-in-the-middle) sites or organizations to apply the
additional semantic data we're facilitating today (as a comparative model,
I look to how universities today - at least in North America - handle
alt-format production). Whether that site-in-the-middle applies this
manually, or eventually using AI, for the short-term future I have little
expectation we'll see much of this adopted legislatively, whether via a
WCAG 2.x or "Project Silver" framework.
