When there are messages coming into channels that are currently not in the foreground, NVDA should suppress them to avoid excessive speech.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start Firefox 3 and install the ChatZilla extension.
  2. Log onto a server and join two channels.
  3. start conversations in both.
  4. Notice that while you're located in one channel, messages from the other, currently not in focus and not visible, come sipping through, making it hard to follow the conversation in the foreground.

Description:
In addition to checking whether the current object's window is part of the foreground window, check to see if it is also visible.

Note that the better solution would be to check for the object's STATE_SYSTEM_OFFSCREEN instead, but until Gecko bug 444644, which is about not setting the states right when an object_show event is fired, this workaround has to be used for now.
