The reason I bring this up is I like my dectalk express at rate 0 as the default rate that is set in speakup is a little faster then I can handle. This is why it would be nice to be able to set these at load time not after booting threw either proc or the speakup review keys. It could also be a configuration option in the kernel configuration when building speakup.
