Are you saying that, when arrowing up/down through bash history, it should always just say "space" because the cursor is always moved to the end of the text? How is that useful and/or helpful?

>In Editors the expected behavour would be to read the complete Line.

Sure, when moving to a new line (which brltty can't detect when the screen scrolls). I'd think, though, that when you replace a character (e.g. vim's R command) that you'd want only that single character to be spoken.
