This is pretty exciting. Request for developer feedback: focusgroup. "The focusgroup HTML attribute is a proposed declarative way to add keyboard arrow-key navigation to composite widgets such as toolbars, tablists, menus, listboxes, etc. without writing any roving-tabindex JavaScript. One attribute replaces hundreds of lines of boilerplate." https://developer.chrome.com/blog/focusgroup-rfc

@brucelawson Sounds pointless. One can already move between input fields without javascript with the Tab key. With Vivaldi you can also navigate between links with shift + arrowkey.

Any issue in the examples on that page are a page-design issue.

@dreddie @brucelawson there's many patterns where tabbing through all the items isn't desirable. This allows you to skip past whole areas like toolbars without needing to tab into every single item.
