Option to display item context before other information in Chromevox seems to do nothing

Reported by nimerjaber1@gmail.com, Jul 16 2016

Issue description

Mode: force_next
Version: 54.0.2796.4
Reproduction Steps: 
1. Launch Chromevox Next
2. CVox+O+O
3. Tab to option that states "Display an item's context before other information such as its name" and tick that box.
Expected: Item state, such as whether an checkbox is checked or not, would be spoken before item name.
Actual: Checking this box appears to do nothing. Just tried in classic, and it doesn't actually behave this way in classic. I don't know if this is what the purpose of the feature, however if it isn't, I will file an enhancement request as this would be beneficial. When moving through items rapidly, I sometimes only want to know the state, and at present, I have one of two choices: Either I can listen to Chromevox ramble until it has announced state, or I can press space a couple of times to toggle the option. This is not necessarily ideal, and an option would be great. Note that I am not wishing to add zillions of options, and I can live with the way things are now. Still, this option would be great, or a clarification about the intent of the referenced setting would be helpful.

David, please let us know if this is how the feature should be working.
