 In [changeset:"40479"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="40479"
 Accessibility: Make Safari 10 + VoiceOver announce repeated, identical,
 `wp.a11y.speak()` messages.

 Safari 10 + VoiceOver don't announce repeated, identical, strings sent to
 an
 `aria-live` region. Appending a `no-break space` to a repeated message
 string,
 forces them to think the strings are different.

 Fixes #36853.
