Well, actually, personally I realized that gnome switched to wayland in
Debian only recently.  I believe most of debian-accessibility@ is in the
same situation, so this is mostly untested, and for instance
https://lists.debian.org/debian-accessibility/2019/01/msg00014.html
needs to be fixed to have gtk2 applications accessible.

As you say, it's now too late for doing much changes in gnome anyway.
