Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-display-4] reading-flow/reading-order vs text selection (#12014)

Moved from [related FSO issue](https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/10407#issuecomment-2810897573): 

If reading flow affects focus but not selection and caret navigation, there may be a mismatch between types of mixed navigation modes uses by assistive tech users...

- many screen reader users use a combination of linear, non-linear, and tab-based navigation, which don't seem to be accounted for in the reading flow or focus scope owner proposal
- it's not clear to me if focus scope owner would result in a more or less predictable order in a timer-stepped switch interface... For example, some Switch Control users have their step speed set as fast as 50ms (1/20 of a second), so predictability is obviously critical.
