Didnt understand this. :D

I dont think an a11y user would want to close the deck and they dont have any
feedback that a deck is open or closed, as you can f6 to it when it is
partially collapsed with no option in that form to open it unless you reach the
tab bar. (bug 102031)

I think the except to this rule is when there is only one content panel, so the
deck title bar becomes the content panel's title.

So are you including the title bar as part of the sidebar deck and when you say
controls within the content panels, are you including the content panel title
as part of this?

As various buttons are grouped in a collection, you cant jump between these
groups with the arrow keys.
