Cycling widget focus with TAB is not implemented, and never was.

That's because the exit dialog ($FG_ROOT/gui/dialogs/exit.xml) is "modal",
This means that it blocks the gui and (because it's derived from a different
plib dialog than almost all other dialogs) doesn't allow accelerator keys.

You can set "<modal>true</modal>" in said file to false. Then it's at least
movable, and the other dialog can be moved in front. Maybe this should be
done in CVS? This is a usability bug, but intentional.  ;-)

FWIW: This will probably be thrown out after the 0.9.0 release. (Which
doesn't mean that there won't be someone who fixes it before. :-)

Well, you clicked it. Just remember the name before it becomes unreadable. ;-)
FYI: you can also switch to a different GUI them (Shift-F10). Maybe it's
better readable then ... or worse ...
