I think one clever enhancement for future Speakup versions would be to have application specific voicings enabled. As Chuck points out, it's easy enough to add chars to /proc/speakup/punc_most and /proc/speakup/punc_some, but the results are global across all consoles and running applications. It would be clever and useful to facilitate particular settings for particular programs. So, in Luke's case, he would have the plus sign spoken by Pine, but not by Lynx in another console, for instance.
