      A. Focus changes to Layout title reveal arrow when tabbing through the Properties section

      Steps:

      1. Focus something in the Hierarchy view, e.g., an HBox.
      2. In the Inspector, edit a Style. Choose -fx-background-color. Press tab to advance. (This is not the focus of this report, but pressing return does not advance to next edit box -- shouldn't it?)
      3. Enter green. Press tab to advance. (Again, pressing return accepts value, but doesn't advance to next control.)
      4. Now, you are on the "+" button. Press tab to advance to "Styleclass".
      5. Boom! The focus migrates all the way to the reveal arrow for the accordion titled "Layout : HBox".

      In fact, focus any property in the "Properties" accordion section. Then try to tab to the next property. Boom! You have just jumped your way to "Layout" bypassing all the properties in between.

      B. Once you have jumped to the reveal arrow of "Layout" ...

      1. Press "space" to actually reveal the Layout section.
      2. Press tab to go to the "top" coordinate editor (assuming this HBox is wrapped in an AnchorPane). That works -- zero appears and an anchor is shown.
      3. Press tab and you can toggle the top anchor.
      4. Press tab ...

      ... and now you are either taken to the reveal arrow of "Code", or sometimes, focus is completely lost. In the latter case, no amount of tabbing will bring you back to the Inspector.
