Thanks for your feedback. I don't know about the other things but
since there is braille support in OS X, even if issues have been present
for years, Apple needs to hear from us, if it means repeatedly hearing
the same thing.

Of course reading with dots 7 and/or 8 is harder, but if well implemented
that’s actually a good thing; for example, BRLTTY uses those dots to indicate
capitalisation and attribute, respectively, with both for a system cursor (one
cell). OS X on the other hand has exactly one caret style, a blinking dot 8,
and exactly one cursor, both 7 and 8, which covers the entire cursor. Very,
very, very annoying, and it just maddens me to turn it off and end up with no
indicator at all.
Braille users use braille in different ways. I think supporting Apple’s
current mode, as well as a full-screen mode, would be acceptable to me, as
would a “Speech box” mode as seen in for example Supernova and in concept very
similar to iOS. Bonus points for a “Literary” braille mode, again as seen in
Supernova, for the reading of beautiful text using correct formatting and
indentation conventions of braille literature. Different strokes for different
folks and all that. But right now, you only have the one mode that always
moves the VO cursor, and it doesn’t work all that well with speech turned on
I’m afraid.
