@jscholes @matt @tunmi13 It's possible my understanding could be out of date. I'd love a better way to do things. However, as far as I know, live regions require the window to have focus, and require the app to be a web app. That's just not the case for any one of my use-cases. Sometimes I'm using an apps built-in scripting language to add accessibility, sometimes I'm patching an app to send text to the screen reader, or sometimes I'm creating an entirely separate app to run in the background to read log files and output alerts that way. In none of these cases would live regions work.
