However, if you go to a https: page, then Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab does work on the Security tab in Page Info. It looks like there must be some focusable content on the tab, or the keys won't work.

I should probably finish fixing bug 175893 which fixes a bunch of problems with tabs. Don't have the time right now -- anyone else want to take it?
I'll take it. Seems the problem is in the security page, not the tab.

FYI, Mozilla tab controls currently expect focusable child content, becuase they try to advance the focus into the content when you flip tabs. Unfortunately although named advanceFocusIntoSubtree the function used can actually advance focus right out of the tab control... Aaron's (bitrotted) patch resolves the problem by setting tabs to flip even when they are not focused (like Ctrl+Tab in the browser).
Neil, thanks. my comment 4 was wrong. there is a hidden-disabled button in the "Security" page, it blocks the Ctrl-tab.
