  3. type in the terminal, for example, c
  4. completions widget is visible, but it's not announced to screen reader users

Completions in the editor aren't announced to screen reader users, but when they're invoked via ctrl+space, they are and say the suggestion then x of count.

We'll need to fix this first https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/233921

It's verbally announced on Windows when tested with the latest JAWS. However, the terminal suggestion is not presented in a braille display.

@meganrogge my guess is this is either the terminal's announcing conflicting with it or the simple suggest widget missing some a11y stuff.
