There is a preference in about:config (accessibility:tabfocus) that allows you to tab between all form elements (tabfocus=3) or all form elements *and* hyperlinks (tabfocus=7). The default behavior seems oddly limiting -- why include only text boxes? This pref should either be exposed in the Prefs UI or default to "3" (all form elements, but not hyperlinks). This odd choice in defaults is noticeable enough to have warranted a tip in Macworld Magazine's "Mac OS X Hints" section (Macworld, Oct '04, p.87). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
