According to wikipedia
"EPUB requires readers to support the HTML5, JavaScript, CSS, SVG formats, making EPUB readers use the same technology as web browsers."
It means that an epub reader is a full web browser engine. It's quite crazy how big of a requirement it is. And the fact it needs Javascript? You can have apps inside epub, lol.
But it also means that whatever accessibility features you want to have - you can have them in epub.
