Request to add bookmark type that changes an element's presentation #20

Some web pages display poorly-named elements, unlabelled buttons etc, or are very wordy or not wordy enough. A bookmark type that let you adjust how that element is displayed to NVDA would be very useful. Especially if you could use the current label in some form, perhaps regexp backreferences? so you could really adjust your listening experience on a per-page basis.

For example, one of my grocery websites has a button with a value of "increase quantity of Milk to 2". I'd love just to hear "2 milk". if you listen to this hundreds of times each week when shopping it gets frustrating in the extreme. Reinterpreting the value of elements presented to screen readers would be a very personal, but useful, addition.
