Description Timothy Hatcher 2021-03-18 12:57:02 PDT

iOS always requires a gesture for SpeechSynthesis to speak. But we should allow it to honor the existing audioPlaybackRequiresUserGesture setting.

Do we have to worry about that setting changing after document load?

None of the other places that use this setting worry about that. Also this is checked at time of SpeechSynthesis creation, so any changes before that will be picked up.
