the first field on every page should get focus when you arrive at this page.

moving non-critical bugs to M20

this one is almost basically done.

Cleanup work, marking M18.

It looks like text entry widgets do get focused.  If we're wrong, you can 
unfuture this.

Comment 4

The problem now only occurs when creating a news account. In the Server Info 
dialog the Server Name field does not have focus. I checked all the mail dialogs 
and they are working as expected.

I'm not sure exactly what I should do to "unfuture" this so I'm setting it to 
M18 for now.

Adding mail3 as keyword. Making it more accessible using the keyboard.
- First fields are not getting focus immediately for Mail or News anymore.

clearing milestone, m17 and m18 are meaningless now.  these need to be triages
along with the rest.

mass re-assign of account manager bugs to racham.

Marking nsbeta1 for accessibility reasons.

Problem: The first field for all the Wizard dialogs do not have focus (i.e.
Mail, AOL, WebMail and News accounts). I tried using the Tab key but it just
toggles between the buttons (Cancel, Next).

I think this should be a duplicate of bug 68336. Thoughts?

Comment 14

[Ninoschka Baca]

Let's keep them seperate because the fix for the first field to have focus will
be different than the tab order working. It will be easier to track the progress
separately.

Verified Fixed 

Although the flashing cursor doesn't auto appear in the Server Name text box for
the News "Information Server" dialog. If you start typing then text displays and
then you see the cursor which is logged in bug 128765/trivial.
