There was a discussion on that "Improve UX for deaf people" topic in 2020, thread starting at [1]. Reading the last email [2], it sounds to me like there was a consensus that a separate application using the existing a11y APIs would be the best way forward.

At a quick glance, [3] looks like an actual application has been developed for Linux in the meantime (and something similar should be possible for Windows using MSAA).

However, that's my impression from only a quick glance at the project in GitLab and a machine-translation from its Spanish README.

Does anybody know more about that or whether there are any specific issues that would still need work on LO side (or whether the suggested GSoC suggestion has become obsolete in the meanwhile)?
