I had a talk abotu sam thing a few years back with the director of W3C WAI initiative, and the approach we talked about was really being standards driven. There need to be one set of standards that both content providers and technology creators follow (Browers, assistive technologies etc..)
Part of the problem is that everyone wants to have their own set of mini standards , so each browser behaves differently, each government wants to define it's own version of accessibility laws. W3C has been making effort to talk to technology companies as well governments to adopt one set of standards. If this is done, then content provider's responsibility would typically stop at complying with standards and the rest would be technology responsibility.
