The truth is that I didn't even think about it. :-)

The way it works for braille is that there are two pairs of commands: 
LNUP/LNDN, and PRDIFLN/NXDIFLN. The setting swaps their meanings. If skip 
identical lines is on then PRDIFLN/NXDIFLN switch to moving exactly one line at 
a time. In other words, the user always has access to both functions and it 
just becomes a matter of which function is the easy one.

Does speech need the same approach, or is just one function, which honours the 
setting, sufficient?
