Currently the description is exposed in the description field of the pageterms API module; should that change if the magic word is used, or should there be a localdescription or something? Ie. do we want all tools to automatically change behavior (including community-maintained/unmaintained ones), or do we assume by default they should use the WD description by default and we switch over the apps etc. manually?

This seems to be a bit odd, the pageterms api should keep doing what it is currently doing. The description of the API module is:
Get the Wikidata terms (typically labels, descriptions and aliases) associated with a page via a sitelink. On the entity page itself, the terms are used directly. Caveat: On a repo wiki, this module only works directly on entity pages, not on pages connected to an entity via a sitelink. This may change in the future.
Changing that would be a breaking change.
I believe the magic words are already available using action="">
