Sorry once again I have to disagree with this approach.  The better thing in
the long run is to get rid of brows mode.  And put in keys that perform the
task without having to turn one mode on and off.  We have mouse keys so why
not browsing document keys as well.  So when you get to the form etc you
just interact with the browser as you would with a normal program nothing to
turn on and off and then when you want to scan the document use the
window-eyes commands.  
The problem is going to be if we do it with auto forms mode or whatever you
want to call it is people are going to be confused when forms mode is on and
when they are interacting with brows mode.  If you have a set of keys for
browsing and use the normal programs command for everything else no
confusing will happen.  It is like with the mouse keys there is no confusing
on if your moving the programs cursor or highlight or moving the mouse via
window-eyes.

Another screen reader also has this capability. It's one of the free ones.
