<blockquote> What constitutes a "method" or "mechanism"?
Does it need to be in the HTML document such as the 'skip nav' links often
used today? Or does providing structure such as list elements to group
blocks of links, and headings to denote the start of new sections enough
considering many (but not all) user agents--in particular screen
readers--have navigation methods in place to move amongst the elements,
e.g., move to the next heading?
At this time it seems screen reader users have the most user agent solutions
using the AT. But keyboard-only, non-screen reader users are less fortunate.
</blockquote>
Frames are considered a method and are accessible to keyboard users.
