Hello Benjamin,
to make a long story short: I think you've confirmed my point of view that
the blockquotes feature is not really necessary, since this styling of
webpages is often missused.
Asking for different features, I referred to developping capacities; I
dodn't want to stress the fatct, whether they are comparable or not. Or, to
put it in a simple image: The team sometimes tends to serve the pie before
they
have served the beef; I prefere the other way.
When I talk about textblocks, I suggest you download and install any
Windows screen-reader and check out how Jaws, Window-Eyes or the
Webformator handle this feature. It is simple a navigation helper.
Large Objects: It's not the point whether I can reproduce the navigation, I
simply don't know what those "objects" are. It seems to me they can be
anything, which means, in the end, they mean nothing. A link is a link is a
link, and a heading is a heading is a heading. But I've absolutely no idea
about the systematics of that odd "objects"; that's why I call the "large
object" navigation stochastical.
Background information: Download and install the mentioned
screen-readers/web-tools. Place the cursor on, let's say a link, Press
insert+shift+f1 in Jaws, insert+e in Window-Eyes or f11 in Webformator.
Then you know what I mean. And BTW: In Firevox the keystroke is
control+shift+q; press it several times and you know what I'm talking
about.
I'm an everyday scren-reader user and a common web user and my point of
view is the user's
perspective, that's the whole story.
Hermann
