Re: [orca-list] Orca stays silent after pressing Super in Ubuntu 20.04

Well, what I did was stop speaking "window" when it could be detected
that something else was about to be spoken. For instance, when you
Alt+Tab, we can skip saying "window" because we're about to speak the
first item in the switcher. It was never my intent for there to be
crickets. I consider that a regression which I will see about fixing.
