Wonder how this will be handled for apps that are shipped on the app store via a 3rd party publisher. The publisher probably does >$1M across all the apps they publish, but each app / developer is likely far under that.

If there are no exceptions, it would mean that 3rd-party publishers lose tons of their value proposition.

I guess they can just create a new account for each customer?

Apple Developer accounts have to be linked to a legal entity (a limited company for example). Registering a different account for each customer would require changing company structures accordingly.
