Oh, it looks like we have (b) already:
Fl::option(OPTION_ARROW_FOCUS)
..which is documented as:
/// When switched on, moving the text cursor beyond the start or end of
/// a text in a text widget will change focus to the next text widgt.
/// When switched off, the cursor will stop at the end of the text.
/// Pressing Tab or Ctrl-Tab will advance the keyboard focus.
I vaguely remember this being discussed recently, and noticed it now
while testing my mods to Fl_Input.. neat!
It might stand to reason therefor, in the spirit of this flag
there should maybe be an OPTION_STRICT_TAB_FOCUS (or some such)
which would handle (a), but in our case, having the default be off
for 1.3, with release notes indicating the default would be 'on'
in a future 1.4 (as per Albrecht's suggestion in this thread).
