That would be excellent.  That's what makes Jovie fairly easy to use.  I
have looked for something like this in Windows (which I use much less
often) and I have not found it.

There is an extension for Firefox which I use (or similar others) for
several years called "Text to Speech (TTS)" which works quite nicely. 
If the extension is installed and enabled, you just select text and an
icon is then displayed somewhere near the selected text (it is not
consitently placed), then you click on the icon and it reads the text. 
It has no funtionality to pause or resume, but it is very easy and works
with any page where text can be selected.

Thanks, Gustav
