The Elements list is considered a single control, so the Window just has two
controls, which means tab will switch between the combo box and the element
list.

That would require handling it as a grid, so yup - that would need quite some
work to do.

As I've already written, accessibility isn't yet implemented. That'll be an
additional patch at some point.

Sorry, I'm not sure I follow you. Is your proposal to use Tab and Shift+Tab to
change the dropdown to the next / previous item, and keep the focus in the
elements list and instead use Ctrl+Tab to change the focus from the Elements
List back to the drop down?

So Tab becomes a short-cut to traverse the drop down from the Element list.
How will the user now know, that he has to use Ctrl+Tab to leave the Elements
list? Do you think it's not needed?
