 > @adamsilverstein hi. Thanks for having a look into this.

 itself
 > Yep, I've considered this option, and while it would resolve the
 technical issue in an efficient way, it wouldn't guarantee that the
 messages passed to `wp.speak.a11y()` should preferably be short and
 meaningful. Ideally, messages for `wp.speak.a11y()` should be carefully
 crafted case by case and we shouldn't assume already existing messages fit
 this specific use case.

 True, but definitely something for a new ticket :-)

 be useful? Perhaps for speaking out a code snippet?

 That would probably be against the "short and meaningful" rule of thumb.
 Therefore [attachment:37382.2.diff] seems preferable.
