Focusing on tab elements steals command operations (e.g. select all).

In Firefox, if I click on a tab element/button, it selects that tab, if I then do something like select all, it will select everything in that tab.

In Thunderbird, if I open a message tab and select the tab element/button, I have to select the message pane for select all to work. It feels like we should be focusing on the message pane by default or not allowing focus on tabs.
