As far as I can tell we support drawing a focus ring for an HTML Area element using Mac Safari Version 5.0.3 (6533.19.4). By default, in Mac Safari you can use option + tab to highlight each item on a page, including <area>s. So, I was able to highlight the <area>s in the example URL <http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tryit_view.asp?filename=tryhtml_areamap>.

Unfortunately, the focus ring of an <area> is colored black (bug #49888) which makes them difficult to see on top of the image at the example URL since the majority of the image is black and/or the focus ring or part of it is drawn on the black parts of the image. Instead, the default focus ring color for an <area> should be Aqua-blue under Mac OS X.
