Description

I'm unsure if this is by design, but the first time you tab through everything, you navigate to the toolbox, main workspace, trashcan, then zoom tools. The next time you navigate from the flyout to the workspace by tabbing, you focus the previously focused trashcan or zoom tool and skip over the workspace completely.

When you are focused on the trashcan or zoom controls, you can press an arrow key to focus a block on the workspace, but you can't get back to the trashcan or zoom controls with the arrow keys.

When tabbing backwards, the trashcan gets focus, then the toolbox. The workspace is skipped, even if there are blocks on it.

This behaviour gives the impression that the trashcan and zoom controls are both separate tab stops and also part of the workspace, which I find confusing.

The focus outlines for the trashcan and zoom controls are rather large and it's sometimes not obvious visually what has focus.
