Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When pressing NVDA+numpadMinus to move review cursor and navigator object to the position of the caret/focus respectively and the caret is inside the browse mode document navigator object/review cursor ends up at the position of the last focused object not at the caret position.
This is mainly problematic in two cases:

  1. In long pdf's when there is no focusable objects - just a big amount of text - in this case review cursor ends up at the top of the document.
  2. After "focus focusable elements in browse mode" has been set to disabled the focused element is a browser window hence moving navigator object to your position in browse mode is not possible.

Describe the solution you'd like

When moving navigator object to focus take into account position of the browse mode caret and set review cursor there - this would be consistent with other cases e.g. setting position of the review cursor in other editable text fields.

Describe alternatives you've considered

None

Additional context

This is especially annoying for people who have set their review cursor not to follow caret - in this case it is impossible to set the mouse to your browse mode position without navigating to it with object nav from the top of the webpage.
