I'm afraid for now, you have to use flat review mode to access multiline
text.  Except where the field supports a cursor, then you can
navigate using that.

Ctrl-F1 or Alt-F1, forgot which, and dont have a running X right now to test.
Alt-F2 might also proove to be helpful, which can be used to launch apps
by executable name.  However, you should really read the GNOME Accessibility
Guide, especially the keyboard navigation section.
