I'm glad to see that someone understood my point.
Incidentally, I am most familiar with SuperNova, although far from expert,
and as far as I can tell it truly reads the screen, so _does_ take notice of
CSS positioning etc.

The only way I can think of to make the links make sense in both scenarios is
to label them as Jump-to Content/Nav rather than Skip, but has Skip become a
de-facto standard now?
