Viktoria Nikolaevna complained that it's hard for blind users to distinguish where are the bounds of the six dots area and suggested an idea: to make a sound (a ringing bell) when the finger moves to or from dots.
I've figured out that it's possible to listen to accessibility events, e. g. focus changed; though we cannot catch the moment when the finger goes off dots: the focus shifts only when the finger reaches another element (a button, text field, etc) so it's already too late to ring (the sound will not help, what is worse, it will mix with TalkBack announcements).
I suppose we may instead add a button which will open Braille dots in full-screen (place this button in "other options" drop-down menu in theory and in the left side button stack in other modes). In the full-screen mode there will be only Braille dots, title (for example, "letter A" or "enter letter A") and a "return back" button.
