The patch removes the "emit those signals" bit. I don't know how vte works internally, but it would be good to research these: - Does proper a11y depend on those signals? - If it does, then how often do those signals really get emitted? Once per character? What happens when you do "ls -l" - does a screen reader read out everything to you? - Can the a11y implementation for vte throttle those signals, and not re-fetch the contents unless the signal has not been emitted for N milliseconds? Think of the "ls -l" case above.
