The UW bug does is not about the look. It is breaking because the link gets
focused. Links are mouse focusable in all other browsers so the UW site must be
doing some WebKit specific thing to cause this.

I'll dissect the UW site tomorrow and see why they get this behavior.

I think it might be acceptable to make links non mouse focusable (ignoring
tabindex) again but only temporary. If the site declares that they want links
to be focusable we should respect that.

The issue with the focus ring is different. If we implement focus right
correctly it would not require web sites to change anything. The difference is
just that we would not show the focus ring on links when the user mouse focuses
them, only when they use the keyboard to focus them.
