Hi Adam,

If you mean full keyboard access [in Keyboard and Mouse Prefs], then yes it is
on for 'all controls'.

Interestingly, if I switch this preference to 'text boxes and lists only'
tabbing through Gmail>Compose Mail goes from to:, subject: and then google
search at the top in Gmail (this appears to be another knock on effect from
Safari's bad handling of the rich text box and tabbing - notice it works fine
in plain text and also in FFX 2.0.0.1 which ever way the full keyboard access
is set)

Andrew - nice one for spotting about the rich text and plain text editor. So
basically, I found the same:
- In rich text tabbing doesn't work properly
- Switch it to plain text it works fine

I guess technically then this shouldn't be a regression issue as for Safari
rich text is a new feature for composing in Gmail. Although it kind of is a
regression since it breaks the way Safari properly handles the default way
users will access Gmail>Compose Mail and then tabbing through it, which in
WebKit 418.9.1 works fine
