I rather suspect that you, again, are quite happy that brltty only announces the new character, so that you can be absolutely sure that it's correct, rather than respeaks the entire line. Again, in this case you do know the context but brltty doesn't.

It makes sense that BRLTTY is agnostic of this in the general case. But in
case of using a keyboard for keyboard input, would it be possible to listen to
all key presses to retrieve this kind of context?
