Summary of Slack conversation:
@Shaal pointed to the functionality at Readable, and wonders if some sort of inline hinting might be possible for readibility.
@Rkoller (and I) are skeptical of page-level readability scoring -- e.g, as a panel tool with the Outline and Alt text.
But Sa11y has readability logic ready to go. It would not be too difficult to add a test that flagged paragraphs with very long sentences. @Rkoller suggested using word count rather than reading score.
Determine feasibility of a manual check or panel tab. Note that this module is sponsored by Higher Ed, and Higher Ed really likes long sentences.
If there was a page-level alert for a very high reading reading level, it is not clear where that would be placed. On the worst paragraph?
Possible new panel tab.
Possible new test.
