Remove the "Speech" menu from the right click menu

Reported by stefan.v...@gmail.com, Jun 18 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/67.0.3396.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open the Google Chrome web browser (on macOS High Sierra)
2. Open a new tab page (or open the www.google.com website)
3. Click right on this page, and you see the menu "Speech" in the list

See Google Chrome forum post: https://productforums.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!topic/chrome/JPsPA-waABQ

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
An option to remove/hide this "Speech" menu in the Google Chrome web browser.
For example, add the option in the Apple menubar -> "Edit" -> "Speech" -> and add here the option to enable/disable this feature.

=> Get a cleaner and simple context menu for the Chrome user.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 67.0.3396.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.13.5
Flash Version: 

Only for macOS users

Adding the conops hotlist and updating to untriaged.
Please address this, doesn't seem like much to ask and its super annoying for developers.

Terrible menu item. Remove it!

Thanks for filing the issue!

From comment#0 it is understood that the issue seems to be a feature request rather than a bug, hence changing the type to Feature. Requesting someone from Dev team to have a look into this.
Our observations:
-----------------
Upon right clicking on a NTP we didn't observe "Speech" in the list, in latest Beta 68.0.3440.25 and in the latest canary 69.0.3464.0.
Note: Tentatively adding component "Blink>HTML>Menu" please change if this isn't apt.

+markchang@ since this is a product question (and "Available" to get it out of triage queue :))

I wonder if we can shift it to above "inspect" to address these concerns. I think removing it entirely would be contrary to platform expectations.
