I'd suggest this was an issue with IE6 (ie a UAAG issue - allow user access to "widgets"), a simple workaround as you say would be to add a tabindex to the overflow:scrolled area, this would allow keyboard use, to overcome the validity issue you can use a scripting solution to set the tabindex and overflow properties or you could use a non W3 version of HTML to maintain the validity of the document.
