I am noticing some oddities with some table navigation on one site in particular that made me head back to my Windows installation where it worked, however. Specifically, if you go to www.kingdomofloathing.com, create a character, go to Seaside Town, Market Square, Mr. Store, and attempt to buy something, not all of the elements appear visible to VoiceOver. I'll ... I'll file this on bugreport.
