[orca-list] Should Orca ignore your punctuation settings when the only thing on the line is punctuation?



Hey all.

What should Orca do when you up/down arrow to a line which consists only of punctuation, or of punctuation with whitespace?

a. Respect your punctuation setting, even if that means Orca might stay
   silent when you arrow to that line, OR
b. Ignore your punctuation setting, because Orca should say something,
   and if we just give the symbol to the speech synthesizer as-is, the
   speech synthesizer might not say it.

Right now Orca is doing option a, assuming that it should always respect your setting because you know best about your preferences, and you can always use left/right or flat review the characters.

But periodically I find it weird that there is silence when one arrows to a line that consists only of punctuation, or of punctuation and whitespace. So I'm wondering if b would be a better option.

Looking forward to your thoughts. Thanks!
