There are special tags, but I don't know if all screen readers support them.

There is also a special aria attribute to describe MathML, but I don't know if all screen readers support it. Also the existing epub 3.0.1 standard requires an epub:switch element while the epub 3.1 standard removed this element.

IMHO, default accessibility attributes/metadata entries should only be added if a book doesn't contain JavaScript, MathML or multimedia files.

(I agree with all your other suggestions.)
