Ok, I see. So the behavior you expect is not actually implemented by Orca, it's the a2 screen driver that takes precedence in the text fields because it knows it brings better support in that case (the cursor routing you get is achieved by the brltty core itself, not the a2 driver which is only the "messenger").
So it's not really Orca that "depends" on brltty-x11, it's just that brltty-x11 is an interesting complement to Orca, to improve screen reading. That being said, perhaps the orca package should still recommend brltty-x11, the same way it recommends xbrlapi which also improves it. We however need to be very cautious because installing brltty-x11 installs brltty, which enables usb-serial drivers which hurt ftdi serial adapters users. I'll see how to arrange that.
