It doesn't resolve the whole issue of ensuring that ARIA is used correctly with a native markup language, but if the ARIA specification is available in a machine readable format (such as what attribute values are valid for a particular attribute, and what attributes can be used with particular roles in RDF), we could build a basic validator to ensure at least the ARIA part is used according to its specification.
