Re: Easy to see where Google's priorities are
The issue is accessibility services are difficult or impossible to properly secure and still work. The "rewrites to replace insecure APIs" is what's being forced on app devs, only a problem where Google hasn't created a secure, focussed new API to replace the insecure hacks already in use. Devs usually need pushing to make these changes.
Anything that stops conditioning users to accept potentially dangerous permissions is a step forward.
