Lukas,

Gary provided the authoritative answer, to which I will add that a stray
method to set the various preferences might be helpful.  We will all
have our own variants, but it is getting hard to tell which options are
not truly independent.  FWIW, it is a great problem to have.

As far as keyboard focus being off topic: it is **ON TOPIC**.  I wish
you guys could have heard Aileen type.  Failing that, watch a clerk who
has learned how to work without a mouse (and hates having to stop to
touch it) pound on a keyboard.  We should be able to meet their
expectations.

Bill

This is really cool. Thanks for the pointers.

Even if this is getting more and more off-topic, what would it take to
get the focus detached from the mouse?
