Problem #1 - Turn off addressbook auto-complete in the prefs, works just
fine - May be a better design forthcoming but this works.

Problem #2 - To: is selected by default for the first address of course,
fill in the address and then press SHIFT+Tab then use arrow keys to
select cc: or bcc: or whatever then ENTER .. A little kludgy I'll admit
but it works without having to use the mouse.

BTW: I teach Windows and using keyboard ONLY takes up a good portion of
the course(s). A really good, proficient user can navigate with the
keyboard much faster than with a mouse !! :-)

And FWIW I think it's imperative that ANY windows based application
should make it easy and intuitive for keyboard-only navigation. We've
become much too dependant on that "mouse" thing ...
