Following a comment on my blog post

I've come to this thread. The commenter would like to have the two modifications combined.
It looks like it would be fairly easy but I lose the motivation to code it when I can't really see the benefit of hearing a sound file for each word.
I can understand the desire to hear sentences. But when you hear a word on its own, its value seems fairly limited. Especially when you consider the generally unambiguous, phonetic nature of the kana. (I know that there are tones to consider but...) Maybe someone could explain/argue for the value of this?
If I did code the combination of the two extensions, would people use it? (Because I won't)
