Re: Mozilla content keyboard navigation proposal - feedback sought ASAP!

[Jon Gunderson <jongund uiuc edu>]

I have been working on an elaboration of the mozilla keyboard
model propsed by Peter Korn last week[1] and would be
intersted in comments.

The draft proposal can be found at:
http://cita.rehab.uiuc.edu/mozilla/mozilla-keyboard.html

Some of the things in this proposal include:
1. Elaboration on interaction of Caret and Standard modes of
operation

2. Details orientation information provided to users as they
navigate through content (primarily through the status bar)

3. Proposes the concept of separating keyboard bindings from
the navigation function, for user configuration

4. Proposes making the navigation functions available to
javascript based extensions as building blocks for custom
extensions
