Also reading through the post linked at the end that has more details, this proposal actually seems pretty well-designed. Most importantly, it’s very easy to use, and that’s important for accessibility features (otherwise no one will put these attributes on their websites).
Looking forward to being able to use this, but it’s probably going to take a while for it to be accepted and implemented across browsers. Not sure what the process for that actually looks like.

It annoys me that I can guarantee they’re doing this to make it easier for agentic AI to interact with the web, but I guess if we get some important accessibility benefits along the way that’s not a bad thing.
