    I see.

    Curious how you feel about a global 'normal key nav' option
    eg. Fl::normal_key_nav() which:

       a) changes tab behavior

       b) prevents left/right edit keys from accidentally key nav'ing
          into other fields, so that only Tab/ShiftTab will shift fields

    Both of these are very easy to implement in FMI;
    One liner for (a), and (b) already exists as a macro that can
    be changed to refer to the global option.

    I thought about this previously, and wonder if it will
    ever be possible; doing that would break any app that
    derives custom widgets from it which assumes Fl_Input/Fl_Input_
    are underneath.

    And any app wanting the Fl_Text_Editor-like behavior would
    simply switch to using it, I think.

    I'm thinking Fl_Multiline_Input would probably have to stay
    a derivative of Fl_Input + friends as long as it remains
    in FLTK..
