To be completely specific: on Chrome 12, Chrome 14 and WebKit nightly on OSX I observe that the tab order traverses all of the buttons in your reduction in number order - i.e. "First", then "Second", then "Third", then "Fourth", etc.

Is that the order you expect to see?  Or do you expect to see "First", then "Fourth", then "Third", then "Second"?

FWIW the specification leaves it up to the platform to define tab order in the absence of a author-provided tabindex value (see http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#sequential-focus-navigation-and-the-tabindex-attribute), so either behavior could be judged correct :)

If you think that number order is correct but you're seeing the reverse somewhere, please provide your browser version and OS so we can try to repro.

If you think that number order is incorrect, probably the best thing to do is send an email to webkit-dev explaining why the alternative is better, and we'll wait for the outcome of that discussion before changing the current coded behavior. On the other hand, if your specification-fu is better than mine and you've found some indication that number order is incorrect, then reopen this bug and provide a link to the spec.
