I think it's difficult, as a11y stacks are not the same between both OS.
However, it's possible to have similar shortcuts. And it's nearly the
case, even if Orca has specific ones as they consider features are
specific. Maybe someday we'll say that flat review is just like Jaws
cursor :) and then affecting similar bindings.
