Speakup doesn't have an on-screen find because it isn't necessary in
my not so humble opinion. Such a feature already exists in lynx,
elinks, vi, emacs, less, and there are almost certainly more from that
list that I can't think of off the top of my head. Why duplicate a
feature in speakup which already exists in various packages? Also, the
find feature in those packages will do a find in the current
page/document, whereas a speakup find feature would be limited only
to the current screen contents. Just my $0.01. Oh yes, I don't use go-to either.
