I did one step in this direction. It's far from being self-voicing, I
currently implemented just a line-by-line read function, but if there's enough
interest, I would of course extend it.
You can download it from
http://crustulus.de/readalout.vim
Only requirement is a user-wide speech-dispatcher (running).
You can run it by:
:source readalout.vim
And now a "\" in visual mode. Now the arrow keys up and down should read the
content of the buffer/tab you are in.
You control speed and language by ':let lang=' and ':let speed=' .
