--- Comment #1 from Christophe Strobbe <c_strobbe-fdo at yahoo.co.uk> ---
I have now reproduced this issue on Windows 10, which suggests that this is not
a Linux-only issue.
I have reproduced the issue using LibreOffice 7.1.4.2 with the same results as
under Linux.
In addition, I have also reproduced the issue using OpenOffice.org Writer 3.3,
again with the same results, which suggests that the issue was probably
inherited from OpenOffice.org rather than being a regression.

In each of these cases, I recreated the same document with the same form fields
from scratch: a name field (plain text), a numeric field, a date field and a
group box with option buttons (gender: male, female, other). Both under Linux
and Windows, the form fields could not be tabbed into. When the mouse was used
to put the cursor in the first text field, tabbing to the numeric field and the
date field became possible, but the group box remained inaccessible.
After selecting one of the radio buttons, tabbing between the group box and the
other fields became possible.
The behaviour was the same regardless of platform. The anchoring of the form
fields (e.g. "To character" or "As character") did not make any difference.
