Actually, the case before the German constitutional court is exactly an example of such a mandate for depositing a copy of an article:

The decision has been overdue for 4 years now. So precisely these kinds of mandates are NOT possible everywhere - yet?
What definitely IS possible is funders mandating institutions to have a modern infrastructure - they all do this already - just not for the kind of infrastructure we're talking abiout here.

@villavelius@mastodon.online @albertcardona@mathstodon.xyz P.S.: I actually filked something that the US would call an "amicus brief" to the German constitutional court wrt to this case. I argued that the court should judge the case on its merit and substance, rather than the judicial formalisms of the mandate in question.
