Quick nav allows you to use the regular arrow keys for navigation instead of their regular purpose. Left and right arrow move left and right, and the up and down arrow use the roter setting. To activate the item in the voice over cursor, press the up and down keys together. Pressing the up and left arrows together or up and right will move through the roter settings. Thd down arrow key pressed together with right and left will start and stop interacting with an item. In some ways, I guess it's similar to what JFW does when activating the Jaws cursor. I don't use quick nav much, I prefer to use the regular arrow keys for the system cursor or focus, I use the numpad or track pad for voice over navigation, but quick nav is there if you want to use it.
