Thanks for feedback... 

This is just a general accessibility feature we would like on Gtk (active without spatial navigation)
I know that support for full keyboard navigation is a general requirement for OS X applications so I just had a look on OS X Accessibilty Keyboard Shortcuts -> https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Accessibility/Conceptual/AccessibilityMacOSX/OSXAXKeyboardShortcuts/OSXAXKeyboardShortcuts.html

It seems that these shortcuts are defined for "full keyboard access" mode
- Control-arrow key: Moves focus to another value or cell within a control such as a table
- Space bar: Selects the highlighted control (equivalent to clicking the mouse button)

In the meantime Command-arrow up / down is a very useful shortcut within the finder so it could be confusing for user if the same is used in Safari
Let me know if you can commit on a shortcut for Safari or enable this for other platforms or give up?
