Re: Widgets within widgets

Nested, yes, but we don't land back on the containing widget but rather 
on the next tab stop. So we keep popping the stack until we reach a 
tabable widget. Does that make sense. Did I mangle that somehow in the 
description? This was why I put in the example showing that after 
landing on widget D you would go to B, not back to A. Maybe I need to 
highlight that, if it's really what should happen.
