Regression. Used to work, despite other editing problems like not being able to re-read character by character what one typed. But keyboard echo used to work in 17.

STR:
1. Open a web page that has an input type text field. Notice that while typing the URL in the awesome bar, characters are echoed back.
2. Touch, then double-tap to focus that input.
3. Start typing.

Expected: Each character should be heard twice, once when touching it, once after lifting the finger to actually enter it.
Actual: Only the touch part is heard. When lifting the finger, the entered character is no longer echoed back.

Impact: Sometimes, the finger may slide to the adjacent character right before lifting, and another character is entered. It is important to be able to hear what one actually typed.
