Hi Gordon,

I'm afraid I'm a demon for using generic keyboard access rather than 
screenreader commands when possible.  I do this because if I'm on a machine 
with no screenreader I can still get around reasonably efficiently.

I've used the VO-left/right to navigate.  However to me it just seems 
cumbersome.  I wholeheartedly agree with you about hiding favourites etc I did 
that right off, and also I much prefer the classic view.

Cheers,

Dónal
