Re: Comments on Mozilla content keyboard navigation proposal

1. Plug-ins
I like Catherines proposal of treating plug-ins as frame like
objects, and basically ignoring them unless someone uses the
frame command to navigate into the plug-in. 

2. HTML Element versus Visual Line Navigation with arrow keys
Some people will not be using screen readers with the "caret"
mode, so jumping between elements maybe confusing to them.  I
suggest having the un modified arrow keys move by line and a
modifier key move between elements like ALT+Down Arrow and
ALT+Up Arrow.  

Ideally ALT+Up Arrow and Alt+Down Arrow could be a
configuration option.  
Options
1. Do nothing
2. Navigate by elements
3. Navigate headings (H1-H6)
4. Navigate form controls

Users could then choose option they want through a config
setting.  Control+Up and Control+Down arrow could have the
same options.
