Al,

I've just checked a small change into Orca CVS HEAD so that if you have
"echo by character" and "echo by word" both set to False, then keys
will not be echoed when you type them in in gedit or gnome-terminal.

Having said that, the key echo revamp is an on-going process. There is
still a lot of other changes that need to be made. For example, hitting
Backspace and Delete won't do the right thing at the moment. I'm doing
these changes in small steps. Hopefully Backspace/Delete echoing will
improve early next week.

No. This still needs to be fixed too. It will be a change to the
onTextInserted() method in default.py. I might even get to it today.
