Hey Peter.

I tried this. I cannot reproduce the problem. Specifically:

So far so good. Works as described.

I do not. Orca presents the page tab within Firefox associated with the
current web page. No entries. And I can continue tabbing and
shift+tabbing. Based on your description, however, I'm wondering if you
have some addon or plugin or something showing you some entry that I
don't have and which is not letting you Tab out of.

Again, doesn't happen to me.

I doubt it was Orca working around it. Again, Orca does not take over
Tab nor does it re-position you as a result of pressing Tab. Tab puts
you wherever Tab puts you if Orca were not running.

I'm still curious if you have an entry that I don't have. Again: toolbar
or pane showing that I have hidden, addon/plugin I don't have installed,
etc. Because...

I am running Orca latest master as of today, firefox 31.0, gnome 3.12
too. Mine is Fedora with a COPR, but that shouldn't matter. Thus our
environments should be pretty darned similar. But clearly you are
landing someplace that doesn't exist in my current environment. If you
cannot figure out what that place might be but could take a screenshot,
I'd love to see it.

Thanks!
