I was curious if Mojang could create speech to text option on the narration option in the settings. My dad loves  minecraft but he recently has been losing his vision and it gets hard for him to play. Maybe create a speech to text so that the narrator will read and tell you what item you're cursor is hovering over.. it would help out a lot for others that have low vision as well.. just a thought!

    An upgrade to the in-game Narrator is definitely a good idea. Having it read out inventory items is a must!
    I also feel as though the narrator should have a specified key or button to tell it to identify what the player is looking at during gameplay, be it a block or be it a mob of some kind.
    Either that, or it could describe the surroundings when pressed too.
