Ultralight dev here-- most work has gone into porting Ultralight to various platforms (game consoles and ARM64) the past 2 years. The main focus is less to replace Electron and more to get modern HTML/JS/CSS running everywhere.

The desktop layer (AppCore) is indeed missing some support but I have some cycles allotted to finish them in the next dev branch (1.4).

Any plans to work on accessibility (e.g. for blind people using screen readers)?

Yes-- WebCore has an internal Accessibility API that I'm going to expose in 1.4 to be either handled by the embedder (so you can determine the best way to display / navigate that information) or handled by AppCore (we provide stock implementations of most of the platform API there).
