[arm-allstar] New Wx, minor enhancement

[Doug Crompton]

Barry,

  Yes good idea. I think we should do that in an update. There may be
others that get missed as Allison has limited words. The problem with
creating new words is the voice would not match. I suppose you could create
an entire new database using TTS but 1. it takes time and 2. we don't have
a list of all the words they could use.
