Additionally, as this may not have been clear: I'm not saying we give up on gestures and require a keyboard. When I talk about keyboard-accessible, I include sequential touch-AT navigation (e.g. swipe left/right with VO to move the VO focus), which maps mostly to what we'd want for keyboard access too (having actual elements that receive focus, and react to a click). So this is basically a question of apps that *solely* rely on gestures having to provide some alternative, non-gesture-based control, which translates to buttons etc...and then those buttons need to be focusable/actionable with keyboard, keyboard-like (e.g. switch access), and sequential access (VO swipe navigation) interfaces.
