Here are just a couple of the snippets of things fixed in this latest 1722 
update.
 
Unfortunately there was no mention in the generic public enhancement fixes 
listing,
of any of the Script stuff or crashes that Jim S has reported, as having been 
addressed. so who knows the status there. :(
 
From:
http://www2.freedomscientific.com/downloads/JAWS/JAWS-whats-new.asp#Enhancements
 
. Resolved an issue encountered in multiple Web browsers on various Web pages 
where HTML source code was being read by JAWS in the virtual buffer, even
though visually, the Web page looked normal.
GC: I've been seeing this lately quite a bit even under jaws 12!
Thought I was going mad!
 
. Added support for Quicken 2015 using new scripts provided by Intuit.
GC: someone has reported this not to currently be functional?
 
. Resolved an issue where the wrong colors were being reported when pressing 
INSERT+5 in WordPad.
 
. Pressing INSERT+T in WordPad in Windows 8.1 now speaks the window title as 
expected.
 
. When using CTRL+WINDOWS Key+ALT+PAGE UP or CTRL+WINDOWS Key+ALT+PAGE DOWN to 
permanently increase or decrease the speech rate, addressed an issue where
JAWS was not saying "faster" or "slower."
 
. When installing an application that uses a Nullsoft Install System installer, 
an issue was resolved where JAWS would not announce the checked or unchecked
state of items when asked to choose the components to install. This occurred on 
64-bit versions of Windows.
 
. In Windows 8.1, an issue was addressed where JAWS would not always speak the 
correct window title in Windows Explorer while navigating with TAB and 
SHIFT+TAB.
GC: did they mean Alt+Tab and alt+Shift+Tab? or did they mean field label with 
tab and shift+Tab?in 
. When using Settings Center to configure the punctuation level for Vocalizer 
Expressive and SAPI 5 voices for languages other than English, resolved an
issue where the current voice rate and volume were not retained.
 
. Resolved a customer reported issue with JAWS not properly reading links that 
contain ARIA labels.
. Improved JAWS performance when interacting with Web pages that use Microsoft 
Silverlight.
 
. Updated the keyboard help messages for the INSERT+F8 keystroke which allows 
you to list and activate buttons on the Command Bar when enabled from the
Toolbars submenu in the View Menu.
 
. JAWS no longer sometimes says "section minus one, page minus one" when moving 
into the body of a new message in Outlook 2013.
. Resolved an issue where pressing CTRL+SHIFT+M from an open message would not 
start a new message unless the Pass Key Through command (INSERT+3) was pressed
first.
 
. If an HTML e-mail message contains a bulleted list, resolved an issue where 
copying selected list items to the clipboard would copy the entire message
instead.
 
etc.
wow!
