The Control and Enhanced choices on the Screen Punctuation menu affect how
control characters (ASCII 0 to 31) and Enhanced ANSI characters (128 to 255)
are pronounced or ignored.  This has nothing to do with voicing of the
Control key, which is in the Keyboard menu.  

In WE 7, potentially more than 65,536 characters are supported instead of
256, and now the pronunciation of those characters on the Screen menu is
controlled with the Miscellaneous part of the punctuation menu.  Windows has
been using this enhanced character set for a few years now, so it was time
for Window-Eyes to get with the program.  Handling of these Unicode
characters should improve our access to PDF documents, among other things,
and it is very important for users of other languages.  So this is one of
those "under the hood" improvements that cause some menus to change.
