We already do. The change was to switch cursor routing to use async, rather 
than blocking, waits.

Async uses thread-local data so each thread has its own events. Cursor routing, 
however, runs in an entirely separate process at the moment. When forking, the 
thread-local data is copied. That means that all of the braille and speech 
events get run in the routing process as well as in the main one.
