This is really getting complex and more interesting.
Is there something you do to have the accessibility work with Firefox?
I just did a brew install Firefox and opened it.
Again same problem.
I started with just plain google search.
Up, down arrows don’t read the previous or next line.  Right or left arrow does 
not move by character, option left or right does not move by word.
Only thing that actually and consistently works is tab and shift tab that’s t.
Do I need to switch on or off some settings in Firefox to make it more 
accessible?
Regards.
