HTMLEditor: Unable to navigate to editor's toolbar using keyboard

XMLWordPrintable

      There is no way how to navigate to HTML Text Editor's toolbar using keyboard.

      Users should be allowed to navigate to the toolbar by:
      1. CTRL + TAB / CTRL + SHIFT + TAB
          - once focus is in the toolbar, 2D traversal (Up/Down/Right/Left) should be sufficient unless these keystrokes are consumed by other controls
          - note that TAB key is reserved for inserting Tab in Rich Text Editor
      2. F10
          - note that this shortcut is used for quick access to Menu bar
          - because HTML Rich Text Editor does not have a Menu bar, we could use this shortcut for focusing the first button in the toolbar
          - if someone use HTML Text Editor control for an app with a Menu bar, pressing F10 should focus the first menu in the Menu bar and not the first button in the toolbar
