I'm not sure what you mean with consumed. Do you mean that a not
consumed event is still received by the client that has the focus
while a consumed one is not?

Yes, means that. On the example with Orca (GNOME screen reader), if you
press NumPad8, let's say on a text editor, Orca speak the current line,
but the editor doesn't receive that key (so doesn't change the text
being edited).

If so, i guess a protocol could be developed where the compositor
sends an event with the key that is pressed and then the client can
reply with a request to send it to the focused client too.

This sounds like it can be done by the input method (ie the same thing that makes keystrokes turn into characters). It already gets a lot of context text, maybe that is enough so that the input method can "speak the current line".
