I support Alan's request to set the help button as the default button. We can give new users instructions on 
how to access preferences when orca starts, and all being well, the user should be able to navigate help with 
arrow keys, assuming the distro has set up caret navigation in yelp, and if not, then perhaps Orca should 
check this prior to launching yelp, and enable it.
