Indeed, if anybody has concerns, please do speak up - ideally before the ESC call in 2 weeks, for which I plan to add this as an agenda item.
Otherwise, I plan to do more API-incompatible changes to the unpublished UNO accessibility API in the future, among others to simplify maintenance and improve the debugging experience.
For the record, UNO a11y API was explicitly unpublished in
commit 70626249cd247d9acdad417b8eaf252bae22c059

API CHANGE a11y unpublishing and add/removeListener rename.
The a11y API has never really been picked up by tools vendors,
let's
not tie ourselves up here for no good reason.
This unpublishes all css::accessibility, and dependend API.
With that, we can change the rather unfortunately-named add/
removeEventListener to be add/removeAccessibleEventListener, thus
not conflicting with the XComponent methods of the same name.

and there have been previous API-breaking changes (by myself and others)
in previous years, see the output of
git log --grep="API CHANGE" -- offapi/com/sun/star/accessibility/
