enter the rightmost group in a ribbon

 Oops, that should be leftmost.  If you invoke a ribbon and hit tab once, you 
always enter at the left side and work your way rightward.

As Adrian has confirmed, once you've done a few traversals of the different 
ribbons you tend to pick up the structure and what's grouped together pretty 
quickly.  You also start compiling your personal "greatest hits" list of 
keyboard shortcuts for the things you use frequently, and even often enough 
that you don't want to figure them out each time you need to do them again.

The various ribbons make a lot more sense when you can traverse each in a 
structured way, and boy did I ever learn that, as a general rule, use of the 
arrow keys does anything but that!!  You still have to use them occasionally, 
though.  When you land in the Font or Font size, both of these are dropdown 
boxes and you do, of course open and traverse those with the down arrow (and up 
arrow, to work back up) keys.  For things like the text color chooser you can 
use all four arrow keys once you're in the color grid.
