The specific problems I have when using speakup for everyday things, would not be solved by changes in speakup, but would require some other text based software. The problems are javascript that will be recognised by those awkward sites that expect specific browsers and seem to refuse anything else and a decent OCR package. There may be some features to make speakup quicker and easier to use, but in my mind it works very well with the text console. If it were to work with the Xwindow environment, it would loose some of those features I like now (speech all the time whilst the computer is running).
