Hi,
Actually, you can suggest new add-ons here, provided that the
user creates a ticket on the NVDA site. What ends up happening
is that someone would create an add-on for something, then the
add-on code is integrated into core NVDA code (this has happened
before). The problem is that some sites still shows older
version of the add-on with no footnotes that the add-on is part
of some NVDA version (BrailleNote driver is a classic example).
There are circumstances when new add-ons can be suggested:
1. If there is a ticket for the feature you want, such as new
braille display or synth support. In case of braille display
driver, one needs to have access to such a display or ask someone
who uses the display to test the add-on for you. In case of
synth support, the add-on writer may need to talk with original
maker of the synthesizer (more so if it is a commercial one such
as Vocalizer).
2. If there is a overwhelming support or a need for such add-on
for users.
Of course, the final decision on whether an idea becoming an
add-on (and the resulting add-on being accepted) is up to you
(users and add-on writers), the members of NVDA user community,
as add-ons are made by community for benefit of NVDA community.
But as for app modules like the original suggestion (if we got
the picture right), the probability of this becoming an add-on
increases unless the app developer makes the program more
accessible for NVDA (and other screen reader) users (which is the
policy from NV Access as well).
I guess a general survey on add-on addition policy is in order...
Cheers,
Joseph

If I understoud the list rules correctly this mailinglist isn't
for
requesting addons. You could create a Ticket and someone would
wright an
addon if he/she wants.

NVDA it is slow reading the screen and NVDA lags for some
reason.
