There will be no appetite if you haven't taken the first step in making it a possibility, which is to include all parties to the user experience in the master plan framework for accessibility. The W3C, or any other standards body for that matter, lacks the direct capacity to compel content authors to adjust their sites, apps, etc. to follow WCAG rules. So how did it work it out that WCAG only speaks to content authors, and not the other parties to the user experience? That lack of direct control over content authors didn't thwart the creation of the WCAG standard. We build the appetite for what becomes the accepted standard by exploring what's possible and by actively and honestly pursuing what best supports the cause. Step one in coming up with a better plan is eliminating the excuse making and re-imagining the rules for accessibility with complimentary supporting roles for all relevant parties.
