Thanks, Andrew... it sounds like that "how do we get all the browsers to 
reliably transfer focus into a plugin?" problem, and I haven't seen 
anyone with a solution other than having the user first click on the 
embedded object.

Some browsers have been able to do this, from what I've read on the 
lists, but I haven't seen a browser matrix of which ones do, which ones 
don't.

(Or, rephrased, we've got tabbing control within any one renderer, but 
it's hard to control when switching between renderers, such as from the 
browser rendering HTML to a plugin rendering forms, when the number of 
possible browsers is not constrained.)
