+1 to Olaf's comment. Some people's workflow with InDesign supports accessibility with the tools available in the product directly, and some people like the support that is possible through a tool like MadeToTag. The reason that InDesign has an architecture that allows for extensions is to support this sort of thing.

However, neither the built-in tools for InDesign nor the MadeToTag tool will remove the need for an author to identify a correct reading order, identify headings and other structures, provide alternative text, etc., as I'm sure everyone on this list is aware.
