Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Dusting off Web Speech API? (#214)

A data point on this: accessibility applications that want to use text to speech could really use a "proper" Web Speech API. In particular the ability to connect the audio output of the speech synthesiser as an input into Web Audio would be extremely helpful. I've actually run up against this specific limitation in implementation work and it has blocked implementation of some features. 

Conversely it is possible to "work around" this by making remote calls to a server to generate audio resources that are then played back some time, but that potentially has privacy implications relative to doing all processing client-side.
