Re: DOM3 Events Specification: keyboard navigation

Certainly the accessability working group could, and probably should,
address this. But I think "keyboard navigation" is out of scope for the
DOM.

Remember, the DOM is a Document Model API. Screen navigation is an user
interface issue. The DOM will happily pass those characters through its
event system. But how they're interpreted by the UI is not under the DOM's
control, so there isn't anything the DOM spec can usefully say about this.
