Re: Navigating via headings in VoiceOver

I believe that the correct use of Voice Over would be to use reading commands to read by line or paragraph until you encounter a link or other active element. Then tab will take you to the next. The tab key only moves from active element to active element. Adding a tab-index of 0 to the headings would make it more difficult to navigate the page for sighted keyboard users.
