I dont want to intrude on a topic that I might be failing to understand, but wouldn't this kind of defeat one good point about Speech Dispatcher, namely that it is ment to be used by different assistive technologies? I am specifically refering to those ATs that work with the text console, like BRLTTY, which can use Speech Dispatcher for its speech output.
Hello Mario, I think that your concern is perfectly valid. But there is not really any problem as explained bellow. Of course we think about the text console, which is still important to many, about the boot process, perhaps login as well. That we want to run Speech Dispatcher inside Gnome session doesn't mean we want to stop Speech Dispatcher running as a system service available to all. We are not removing the /etc/init.d/ script or something like that, we just want to additionally give the user the possibility to use his own user Speech Dispatcher when inside Gnome session, which is useful because each user can configure it specifically to his needs, it is the proper way to run it with his user Pulse Audio, it could communicate over DBus and such. They can run on different ports, so there is no problem.
