Hi, Hot spots. They enable you to keep track of a certain area in a window, quickly jump to it, or simply read the status area it is monitoring within a certain window.
Example: You are downloading something in Safari, but you want to do something else. But it's a huge download. You go to the percentage with the VoiceOver cursor, hit VO-Shift-1 to save it as hot spot number one, and go do whatever else you might want to do on your Mac. If you suddenly wonder how far along the download is, you can hit Vo-COmmand-1 to monitor Hot spot one. Now, this is a pretty difficult command for some people, so you might want to use the right command key instead of the left, coupled with control-option on the left side of the keyboard until you get beyond four or so. As for jumping to edit boxes, you can either use the rotor on the trackpad or via VO-U and Quick Nav. You can also make Safari jump to all controls except links buy hitting option-tab. I don't think AppleScript is required for this at all, though it can probably be done for those who really care.
