[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 100898] Sidebar decks with controls without a content panel title are unattainable with keyboard

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100898

--- Comment #4 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko@gmail.com> ---
Arrow keys must not be used for traveling through all controls, that's the
purpose of tab. Arrow is used to navigation within controls such as lists.

The question is whether or not the deck title "slide transition" is part of the
sidebar tabs. I would say no because there is another item "slide transition"
for the actual sidebar tabs. 

When I tab from the deck title (running 5.3 under Windows) I do not jump to the
list of transitions. When I'm in the sidebar (using the mouse to enter) the
navigation stays within. Sounds acceptable. So the question to me is how to
deal with the headline, keep it either readable and add means to enter the
sidebar (e.g. per Enter) or make this label non-readable (static, non-focusable
text) so that the sidebar tabs work like a normal toolbar.

My suggestion is to have a shortcut to access the sidebar tabs, navigate
through the tabs using tab, jump the sidebar deck per Enter (and/or Space)
ignoring the title bar and have the usual tab navigation there. We should
provide a dedicated short cut for the sidebar.
