Hi:

Thanks. 

I renamed "verbose spaces" to "white space". Speaking spaces non-verbosely 
still implies that they're spoken - tersely.

I also changed how the preference was acted on since it was done in a way which 
impacted more than just autospeak.

Perhaps speech cursor navigation also needs some kind of space speaking 
preference. If so, the two should probably be merged, and the merged preference 
shouldn't be subject to the autospeak setting. Also, we'd have to think through 
very carefully what each of its values should be. For now, though, this new 
setting is in, and, for all we know, may be all that's actually needed. I'm 
nowhere near enough of a speech-using person to be able to intuitively guess at 
such things.
