I would like to add my voice in support of this line of thought. Yes, most systems out there with speakup probably are single user home systems. However, I still think it should be borne in mind that linux-based systems have multiuser abilities by nature, so I personally wouldn't want to see assumptions made in speakup's development which rely on the fact that speakup runs on single user systems only. As a case in point, I mentioned in another thread that I have a couple user accounts on my system for other folks, and one of those is a shell account. Though I mostly access this system over ssh, it does have speakup built into the kernel, so that I could hook up my bns, and troubleshoot any boot issues. Since I mostly use this system over ssh, I don't use speakup's cut/paste feature much on it, but there may be cases where I need to use that feature, where the system is in a multiuser runlevel, which of course could lead to the possibility that someone else could have a look at potentially sensitive content in the clipboard. Just my $0.01 worth.
