I have to say I agree. I think we should be given the choice to do
either method, as I can actually see times where the f8-f8 method could
be useful, just not all the time ya know? let me please encourage the ai
squared guys to add the standard text selection method back in. It's
gotten to the point now where i have to switch to another screenreader
just so I can select a few bits of text, and then switch back to WE 9.
The older way really was faster for me. After all, regular sighted
users don't select text in that manner.

Hi,
Trying to come to grips with the new method of selecting text on a web
page and wish I understood why this very slow and cumbersome method of
text selection has been included. What was wrong with the shift and
arrow keys? It is a standard Windows command after all and takes a
fraction of the time this F8 method takes.
I saw a message where someone said the word box in an edit box had
been missed out to make the process of navigation faster, so why
didn't the same logic apply in the text selection method.
