The flat review modus does not work like the Jaws cursor in Windows. You 
can 
use the flat review keys without pressing Orca+p. Just read with the 
defined keys. When using the arrow keys, you're using the focus tracking 
mode automatically.
After having read text with the flat review keys, press Orca+p to route 
back to the place where you left the system cursor.
You can check out this behavior in a text file using Gedit, the Gnome text 
editor.
