[orca-list] Any Ideas about Flat Review?

[Parham Doustdar <parham90 gmail com>]

Hi,

I've been finding flat review a lot of extra work. Here is my workflow 
whenever I'm trying to look at rapidly changing screens:

1. Enter a command. The best way to reproduce this is to install 
something large with pacman or apt-get.
2. Read the screen, say, to see how much of the data is downloaded. What 
you see is actually different than what is on the screen. You have to 
leave the flat review mode and then review again to see the new status. 
So for example, to see how much of the file has been downloaded, every 
time I have to press caps lock plus P, and then caps lock plus I, 
instead of just caps lock plus I.

Is there a way to remove the need to explicitly turn review mode on and 
off, and always have review mode up-to-date with what's on the screen? 
This feels like I'm interacting with snapshots of the screen at one 
moment, which is not easy as I always have to validate the data I'm 
hearing. How I usually do this is to use what I think is another Orca 
bug: navigating letter by letter in this case gives me a different piece 
of data, which seems to be more recent.

Thanks.
