The GNOME_Speech_Speaker.idl is able to set _voice_ parameters for

I would like to propose GNOME_Speech_SynthesisDriver to be able to set
_driver_ parameters for dictionary, input type, language dialect, number
mode, sample rate, synthesis mode, text mode, want word indicies, and
want phoneme indices.
Do you feel that it would be strongly advantageous to set these on the
SynthesisDriver rather than the Voice? Some of your suggestions seem to
me to belong very much to the Speaker, for instance dialect, number
mode, and probably dictionary. Unless there is a compelling reason why
these cannot or should not be applied to Speaker, I'd prefer to use the
existing Speaker API for setting them.

For example,
sp = GNOME_Speech_SynthesisDriver_createSpeaker(...);
GNOME_Speech_SynthesisDriver_setParameterValue(sp, InputType, Annotate);
speaker_say_print(sp, "\V0Hello World\V1Que Pasa");
Enclosed is an example enhanced IDL:
