Why would I, or anyone want this?
The blind or vision impaired would appreciate this. Past that, hard pass.
My wife, when she's not wearing her prosthetic corneal lenses.
I use a screen reader due to being blind, and this would be incredibly helpful. Mind you, I sure as hell wouldn't use Windows in order to get it. But if I had the option to do this on Linux, I would totally go for it.
