DJ,

You know this for a fact? I don't think FS is quite that  sinister. I've 
found that in spite of bugs and overall bloat of the product, JAWS has 
continued to be a valuable asset to my maintaining a job in the mainstream 
world.

If they add this feature as an option, FS would wait until after JAWS
version 12 was released, then add the feature, and call the update version
13.  That would shoot down another SMA for those who still wish to support
FS.

it should be added as an option.
we could use it only when we are alone at home. I wouldn't use it in class
or other public places.
