           Summary: FKA: activating a fragment ID URL (in-page link or
                    external link with hash) should transfer focus and
                    caret to the fragment target element with ID or name
                    matching the fragment identifier

The patches for bug 17450 and bug 116046 either did not fix all the problems or regressed some time later. Refiling again here.

FKA: activating a fragment ID URL (in-page link or external link with hash) should transfer focus and caret to the fragment target element with ID or name matching the fragment identifier

This needs to work for full keyboard access (FKA) as well as VoiceOver, and should work with in-page links (href="#foo") as well as on page load of external links with hash fragments (href="./bar.html#baz"). The patch for bug 17450 only fixed the problem for one use case: VoiceOver users using VO navigation only, not Tab navigation. 

This should bring WebKit in-line with the expected behavior in both Gecko and Trident.
