>> Should all fields using tabfocus events, or only the most used input
pattern? What is the best practice?
Have Tab index for all fields, for following reasons:
1. The users who use tab are going to ofcourse rely on keyboards , hence
having tab index for selected fields would require them to change input
devices in case any other field has ot be selected, this breaks flow. You
can take this oportuity to rationalize the form and may be remove fields
that are there for wrong reasons
2. It makes the form unpredictable, as they would not know what next tab
index would do
3. Non-sighted users cannot use pointing device like mouse, but rely on
devices like keyboard,they would have no way to access other form fields.
