I think something like what you're wishing for will happen, but I don't think it will come from Adobe.

I explored a bunch of apps in this category over the weekend and was pretty impressed with what's out there, although it still feels early. Rive (https://rive.app/) is probably the one I'm most excited about; their state-machine approach is novel (at least to me) and feels like a solid approach. Unfortunately they don't support text yet, which is a deal-breaker for what I wanted to do, but they say it's coming.

The Lottie (https://airbnb.design/lottie/) ecosystem is also interesting. Funny enough, Adobe still seems to dominate as a pipeline for generating Lottie files (Illustrator -> After Effects), even though you need a third-party plugin to do it.
