Might this be relevant: "In general, pressing the Tab key moves focus 
through the major components; Shift-Tab moves through the components in 
the reverse direction. Control-Tab and Control-Shift-Tab work in a 
similar fashion and are necessary when keyboard focus is in an element 
that accepts tabs, such as a text area."
