In the microformats process, solutions as "blessed" by real-world  
factors.  In this case, there's testing going on, documented here:

http://microformats.org/wiki/assistive-technology-abbr-results

If you'd like to help do some testing in real screen readers, that  
would hasten this process.  But choosing a "solution" without knowing  
how well it would actually solve the problem, nor whether it would  
introduce new problems, is a bad idea.
