There is no way to navigate vertically through a single-line text widget. 
Also, depending upon implementation, TAB may not work on multi-line edit fields
(though I would class this as a bug).  And in my experience, many blind users
really like knowing about these kinds of differences...  But better to hear
that from the customers directly - anyone care to state a preference?
