One thing I'd like to see in a future incarnation of voiceover is the ability to remap the key sequences needed to perform a certain task.
For example, I don't use the vo-H command much, however I do use vo-command-H (in safari) rather more frequently. So ideally I'd like to swap these two around. This would mean that to perform a task I do on a regular basis, I'd only have to hold down three keys rather than 4, as is the case at the moment. Of course this might be possible at the minute, and I've just missed the options to let me do it.

If you want to use the Shift key in all windows to make sure you get to the top, though, just use your right hand to hold the shift key like I'm doing. > > I feel mostly safe using the shift key along with the combination mentioned above, but sometimes I'll use the other one and switch between them.
