Yes, in fact Milan Zamazal initially intended to build Speech Dispatcher support into Emacspeak, but due to the significant differences between the approach of Emacspeak and the architecture of Speech Dispatcher, he ended up writing Speechd-el as an alternative Emacs speech interface. In practice, I can still imagine using Speech Dispatcher as a "dumb" backend for Emacspeak, ignoring completely its high level interface and using it simply as another low level speech output engine. This would at least improve integration of Emacspeak with other assistive technologies which are using Speech Dispatcher (such as Orca, speakup or Yasr). I don't know, however, if anyone tried that.
