Unless I am misunderstanding I can't see this going to work. VoiceOver
uses different voices on both iOS and Mac. So if they are going to
implement this on the mac then it will have to work across macs only.

hi nicholas.
I know that most times the problems are the apps, apps are standard
sustema osx, or other companies.
but the voice over also has some bugs in certain apps that to be fixed.
The voice over is not immune to bugs.
we all know that screen readers have bugs whatever they are.
and also
nicholas, I liked that!
yes it would be great! !
the voice over has to innovate!
to me, it seems that voice over are stopped in time ...

I agree.

I have an even better suggestion. Why not be able to select files directly in
