I'm sighted but not a fulltime keyboard user* - I use speech recognition software (currently Dragon Naturally Speaking Professional 11.0) and also have trouble using headings. I find I have to do A LOT of extra tabbing to get through a page or tables.

*The more IT is not compatible with speech recognition software, the more I have to do things manually, which only exacerbates (the pain and thus) the need to use assistive technology.
