I don't know Jacqueline, I found it right away since I wanted to become
proficient with Rev and naturally looked up the shortcuts.
tab seemed natural to me coming from SC and HC before that.

Not an excuse, but an explanation: HyperCard started this convention
20 years ago. SuperCard took it up to be compatible and continued it.
When MetaCard came along, it too adopted the same tab-key behavior.
Revolution continues the long tradition. So, there have been four
x-talk IDEs that use this convention spanning many years. And that's
why.
In Revolution, it is mentioned in the Help menu -> Quick Reference
Guides -> Shortcut Reference. I admit this isn't easy to find.
