This may be a problem. A user should be able to invoke a key (say line) to
make it speak the row. Maybe I just want to read the values in the first
column only. The behavior should be the same for reading down any column. 

The list below did not address how column / row headers  will be announced
as one reads cells by row / column. Also what about support for reading
headers when they occupy 2 rows or use colspan type of design?

Thanks,
