Chris, although this may be unacceptable, at least it restarts and does not take the entire machine down, which has been my experience with windows-based screen readers. Even though Apple Accessibility may not have responded, they do take these messages seriously. I cannot say why you did not receive a response, but generally they do respond. I initially thought I had some issues with Safari 5, but I have to do some more testing since most sites I use regularly are behaving fine. And in Apple's defense, they may not have encountered any problems or did not have the opportunity to test with every possible site. SO, continue to provide feedback, you are not being ignored.
