It would be nice to have an option to disable the reading of layout/formatting information, such as the start and end of lists, tables, frames, landmarks, etc when tabbing through content, such as a webpage. This would enable the user to still have this information read when navigating through a document, but would mean they could tab through documents quickly.

The document formatting settings are covered, but not this particular issue. I don't want to enable or disable formatting settings - I want to have an option to skip reading of formatting information when tabbing, instead of arrowing, through content. For example, if I have a page with a range of links organized into various lists, if I arrow through the links I want the list to be announced, but if I tab I want only to hear the links.

Replying to jhomme:

I am not too convinced by this feature request. The absence of any concrete usage case or justification for this feature and lack of justification for differentiation between arrowing and Tabbing makes this ticket somewhat incomplete.Thoughts/inputs from others would be appreciated.
