I'm not sure if this applies or not, but as someone else has
said, the ability to hear incoming messages in Pidgin was
incredibly useful to me when I was working in a company that used
IRC heavily. I couldn't imagine doing my job and staying up on top
of all of the conversations I had to participate in if I had to
jump between every open conversation every few minutes just to see
if someone had said something recently. Similarly in the use case
that Peter mentions below, I can see a situation where I'd
definitely want to be getting updates on a document where I was
collaborating with others while I went off to check my email or
read something on wikipedia. If possible, I'd say this should be a
toggle and the default should be off.

Hello all,
I totally agree with Peter. I also really think we should disable
this by default and let this configurable for advanced users that
want to have notifications of background tabs.
Best regards,
Alex.

Hello,
I definatelly agree with Mallory and NVDA and Mozilla folks on
this.
Please consider the following use case:
* Firefox with three tabs
* First tab has an editing text document in Google docs
showing,
* The second tab has spread sheet document also in google
docs,
* Third tab has a wikipedia article I'm currently reading.
My colleagues are collaborating on those two documents I have
open and orca will be reading all the corresponding background
live region changes.
Do you think I like all these announced as they appear?
For long lasting background tasks, new submissions like
articles, instant messages and similar we have got desktop style
notifications that can be configured according to our
preferences. I can't currently think of a web app that allows me
to configure how much spam I'd like to get via live regions.
It looks as this will turn out to be a settings toggle according
to other posts but I suggest to disable reporting background
live region updates by default.
Greetings
Peter

Hi Peter. I already know how to
eliminate things from non-active tabs. I'm just waiting for
consensus on the question I asked.

Hello,
This thing is now solved for NVDA on Windows.
Jamie has came up with a clever trick on how to go about
fixing it.
I guess something similar might also be doable within orca..
See his comment at https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/1318#issuecomment-496722146
saying:
Firefox already provides a relation to get the tab document
for a given accessible, as well as a relation to get the
currently active document from the root. We could use those
to fix this.
BTW what's that special live region suitable for instant
messaging apps?
Greetings
Peter

I agree. many instant messaging
networks become usable to Linux systems through web
interfaces,
There is a special live region type for instant messaging.
Do you have use case in mind we could try?
Best regards.
