Fenrir is also quite heavy-weight, since it brings python. Brltty would
be much less heavy-weight (but still bring e.g. libicu)

On the Linux console there is currently no way to activate a program
through a key combination.
What is the installation use case, actually? Is it again the raspi case?
As mentioned previously the raspi team handles it, so it'd rather have
to be discussed with them.

The question is how to detect that it is needed. We can't just install
and run a screen reader by default on all Debian systems, so something
needs to trigger the screen reader startup.
