Re: [HTML Speech] speech resource specification requirement

I think selection of the speech engine should be a user-setting in the
browser, not a Web developer setting. We had a similar conversation in
Geolocation where some folks wanted a URI to point to a specific location
server. We rightly removed it. Also, the security bar is much higher for an
audio recording solution that can be pointed at an arbitrary destination for
obvious reasons.
