I think that's simple: He's demanding a bookmark function. I don't know
whether FF provides such a function. If not, we may think about adding
it to Rich's extension, or, what I would prefer, to Orca.
When the page has changed, it might be the case that the bookmark has
gone. That's the experience with such functions in Windows screen
readers, but I think to have such a function is better than no function,
even if it's not always persistant.

Must be a kind of all-purposes weapon ;-)
