I'm very interested in any ideas you have regarding how better speech support
could be added to BRLTTY.

I agree with you, but there are also situations where grade 2 braille is
better, i.e. reading lots of documentation. At such time as BRLTTY supports
grade 2 braille, it'll be by option. There'll be a toggle which can be switched
at run time to select the mode the user wishes to currently be in.
