I wouldn't take the way of NVDA as a good example. NVDA lists only three
types of objects, one of which was always empty in my tests.

We should prefer commercial screen readers such as Jaws or Hal/Dolphin
as an example. I think they are the best known on Windows.

Firstly, the developers will have something in mind for their solution
and on the other a similar behavior makes it easier to change between
Windows and GNOME.

Both have separate lists. Hal/Dolphin represents those lists in one
window but distributed to different tabs in a notebook. JAWS on the
other hand, uses different windows.
