Hi Samuel,

Just so that you know: you are still using the former address of the
list, brltty at mielke.cc, rather than the new one, brltty at brltty.com

Coming to your message, if I understood you correctly the first approach
seems more complete but also more difficult to implement, while the
second one seems simpler to implement but with the drawback that it
would not support a few features like rectangular copy and accumulation.

One additional benefit I can see to the second approach is that it
would let a sighted co-worker see what gets selected, which I find nice.

So perhaps this second approach could be implemented first and then we
could experiment with it and see whether the features we won't have are
really missing?

Best,

Shérab.
