my advice for testing is you should only run default settings the only
settings i change on my test systems is typing echo i use words and
punctuation. if your running defaults and the bad behavior happens that is
what you want to work for. we can't expect a user will know ware the
settings are to change and we can't expect they will read documentation.
the best example of this is the google documentation that says how to set
up your screen reader no one ever reads that before they scream about how
bad google docs is. this is some thing i know for a fact because if they
had read the documentation it would tell them what they are screaming ming
about would be fixed if they followed instructions grin lucy
