Bug Description

In the affected plugs, pressing the tab key while the sidebar is focused toggles through the list of items in the sidebar instead of giving focus to the next widget in the plug. This makes navigation of the plugs by keyboard difficult.

Feel free to mark this as invalid if it's intended behavior but it feels as though the up and down keys should control the selected item in the sidebar (which they do) and the tab key should allow you tab across to the first item in the main part of the plug.
