I haven't submitted it mainly due to the thought that no one else would fine it interesting.  There exist other, similar ways to get audio out:  app_jack, app_unimrcp, etc.  I built this because of some special needs, and it is very convenient due to its extremely light weight.

For those who aren't aware, getting this pushed out to the -dev list
was an AstriDevCon 2018 takeaway action item with regards to interop
with web-based speech recognition APIs.  I'd love to see more
discussion and work on this topic, as I think that there stands much
to be improved in Asterisk to better interoperate with some of the
major speech recognition vendors.
