Re: [orca-list] A very difficult possible not always reproducable Orca Thunderbird issue

I sort of think I observe this from time to time. I'm not fully sure 
what is happening but I am slightly swayed to the thought it may be 
related to the caret position on the line (I think there may be times 
when the caret appears to be on the previous line although left and 
right indicates it may be on the first character of the next line).

A quick play around just now in this message seems to show me something 
interesting. Go to a line while composing which wraps to the next line 
and press end. Now press right, I get nothing spoken, press right again 
and I get the second character of the next line. Press left, I get the 
first character, press left again nothing spoken, press left again and I 
get the last character. Now press end again and cursor up and down, 
observe what happens around a line where you did press enter to finish 
the line, I get the line spoken twice (once when the caret is on the 
line wrap join and once when its on my actual newline character. Does 
this seem to show your bug? Now is this a mozilla bug or a orca bug?
