Short answer: No, within page anchors don't (in my testing) affect the VoiceOver cursor. There is a workaround using the mouse cursor commands, but I wouldn't expect regular users to know this. Data tables are still just treated as text, which is such a shame, because the same functionality elsewhere in the system (e.g. iTunes) works really well. That may be updated with an incremental update, I hope. I’m writing up some more on this, I should be able to finish it this weekend.
