Hello.
I've done some preliminary testing with Calc and NVDA.  NVDA properly reads the 
cell coordinates as well as any data contained within the cell as you use the 
arrow keys.  This is how screen readers handle spreadsheets in excel, and this 
is good news.  However, if I type any data within a cell, pressing arrow keys 
after I enter any data reads too much information, namely the title of the open 
workbook folowed by instructions telling me that I can edit or enter data.  It 
does this every time I use arrow keys to move from cell to cell.  When I 
compared this to the behavior in OpenOffice, I noticed that OpenOffice does not 
have this bug and allows me to just hear the cell and its corresponding data 
while arrowing through the spreadsheet.  Again, Libreoffice only begins reading 
too much information after I enter data into a cell.
