Generally speaking, on a Mac, only text fields are keyboard focusable.
 If we have to pick a single behavior without a pref, that should be
it.  Ideally, we should pick up the system-level accessibility prefs
and/or an application-level pref.

Unless a user has turned it on, hitting tab and not getting to the
next editable text field will cause a WTF exception in most Mac
users...
