hi will,
By the way m and shift + m sounds perfect to me as well.
happy hacking.

Hey Will
M and shift-m seem perfectly reasonable to me. I guess I'm not
particularly bothered either way, whether their are default bindings
or not. Truth is I don't use structural navigation as often as most
people seem to, primarily because I find that if i become too used to
it I end up taking longer to navigate a page that doesn't have it.
Using next/previous large object, and sometimes prev/next heading, is
about the extent to which I use structural navigation, and I don't
mind using the large object commands as a page will always have large
objects, though whether they're the objects I'm interested in is
another matter :).
If you're going to have default bindings for these, your idea of m and
shift-m sounds good.

Hey All:
I need your input.
Right now, we have two unbound functions in Orca to jump to the
previous and next ARIA landmark. The main purpose of a landmark is
to help identify portions of a web page that are of some typical
interest to a user. For example, the "search" area, the
"navigation" area, the "main content" area, etc., can all be
landmarks. See htp://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria/#landmark for more info.
To avoid cluttering the keymap, we've not bound these two functions
to key combinations in Orca. I've received a few requests, however,
to provide default keybindings for them.
An example use of landmarks is at http://wiki.codetalks.org. If you
want to try them out:
1) Give the Firefox window focus
2) Press Ctrl+Orca+Space to bring up the Firefox-specific
preferences for Orca
3) Go to the Keybindings Tab and define bindings for the next and
previous landmark functions.
The 'l' and 'Shift+l' bindings are taken for navigating between list
items, but 'm' and 'Shift+m' seem to be free. I'm curious about
your thoughts on using these keybindings for navigating between
landmarks. 'm' would take you to the next landmark in a page and
'Shift+m' would take you to the previous landmark.
