In order to avoid to be limited by a short focus during a braille reading only, add ability for the focus to follow braille cursor/review cursor. Currently, the problem during a long braille reading it the limit imposed by the shortness field imposed by the focus.

Please be more specific about what you want. The caret or review cursor (depending on which you have braille tethered to) already does follow braille.

Replying to jteh:
Hmmm, the caret I guess. To understand the problem, you could open one document in IBM Lotus Symphony for example. You should able to read two lines only. After, you have to use arrow keys to go down or up. Same thing for this comment edit box. I know that NVDA it not a clone of Jaws, but in this commercial screenreader, braille can follow focus and focus can follow braille.

Good to close? Looks vague and possibly app-specific. We're already discussing this in other issues.

This issue seems to be about the caret not following braille in certain apps even when braille is tethered to focus. It's somewhat vague and is very old, so at the very least, the situation has probably changed. Therefore, I'm closing this. Please file issues for specific apps if this is still an issue.
