As of this week, I intend to turn on the speech synthesis API on by default
for the desktop browser. It has been enabled in b2g for the last few years.
Thanks to work by Makoto Kato, and Yash Girdhar, we now have support for
speech in all desktop platforms.
The pref that will be flipped is "media.webspeech.synth.enabled". The bug
tracking speech in desktop platforms is bug 1003439
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1003439>.
The spec
<https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/speech-api/raw-file/tip/speechapi.html#tts-section>,
is okay-ish. There are no MDN docs yet, all in due time, I guess.
Cheers,
Eitan.

If there was no Intent to implement email before, probably some
content there should be included as well.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI/ExposureGuidelines#Email_templates
I think the main things absent here are: target release, devtools bug,
and other UAs' status.
