Sorry for commenting years later, but - I _can_ navigate to diacritics using
Alt+arrow keys - both for Hebrew and for Arabic. I'd like to ask other people
who have followed this bug to also try this kind of navigation; and if it
doesn't work for you - file a separate bug.

Also, despite agreeing with the closing of this bug, I'd like to say that
compatibility with screen readers w.r.t. diacritics is a valid concern. I would
open another bug about this myself, but I don't know the first thing about
these screen readers. Zahra, perhaps you could open such a bug, focused on what
specifically you want to happen with your screen reader or other specialty
hardware.
