Greetings There was a time when JFW had quite the extensive set of commands that required quite the array of finger gymnastics. For a while Window-Eyes was OK, however when a new layout was introduced WE ended up being tied or running a close second with respect to the gymnastics required to get some information. yes one can always re-map the keys, but that has its disadvantages.
Where I feel there are challenges is when I am helping someone who is only able to use one hand. Even when a one handed keyboard is being used, there are times when we need to do a WE specific command that makes it very difficult. What might help is having a dual mode for the numeric keypad. When num lock is on then some commands can be use like insert+down arrow for read to end, insert+up arrow to read current line, etc. Then when num lock is off the numeric keypad can function with the WE mouse keys which has huge advantages and is very intuitive.
