Hmm, this must have been programmed in so it is a feature. On the other hand,
not a very good choice of things and if they did it there they should have done
it in Mail signatures too. In any case, quickly finding out what groups / Tags
an item is in when it is selected could be useful in a few places though using
the option key seems very silly, perhaps a triple click of the VO-F3 might make
more sense. In JAWS / NVDA sometimes picking on insert-tab provides more
details, unfortunately, VoiceOver uses VO-Tab as ignore next keystroke which is
really only useful if you have VO-lock on which is implemented with
(vo-semicolan)
Best wishes,
