I agree, the one row added issue is my single biggest frustration with VoiceOver. It's not so much that you never want it, because in some applications it's extremely useful. But there are times when you don't, and there's no verbosity setting governing it.
I'd like to see a verbosity setting that allows the user to set it to off, tone, or announce. Then I would save the setting to off in my YoruFukurou activity. By default, YoruFukurou uses Twitter's streaming API. This means that the app doesn't check for tweets at a pre-determined interval, but instead pushes the tweet to you the moment it has been sent. The trouble with this, is that if you follow a lot of people and they're all busily tweeting away, your reading of tweets is constantly being interrupted by "one row added". It's hard to read your Twitter feed and sometimes you need to attempt to read the same tweet several times before VoiceOver lets you complete hearing it. The work-around is to turn off Twitter API streaming, but this isn't ideal and makes YoruFukurou less attractive. One possible compromise would be for VoiceOver to complete the text it is reading before it says "one row added". Even that would be a big improvement over what happens now.
