I have discussed this with Kay now and he'd very much prefer to do this with a proper "idle" session that some tool (maybe some wrapper around the speakup daemon) registers in CK, instead of patching udev-acl. That should allow us to do without CK and udev-acl patches and allows non-a11y setups to stay unmodified.
