At this point, speech-dispatcher is not designed to be a text processor,
as correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe it assumes that supported
synthesizers already have built in text processing capabilities. Any
pronunciation handling in either speech-dispatcher or a screen reader
should handle user-defined exceptions only, until or unless
speech-dispatcher becomes a text processing application that sends raw
phonemes to most if not all supported speech synthesizers. Otherwise, we
risk serious pronunciation errors similar to the Speakup error I noted
earlier. Of course, if full text processing is indeed on the roadmap for
speech-dispatcher, then this message may be disregarded in its entirety.
