AccessKey property has many restrictions which I don't like:
- it is a browser specific feature (accessKey is triggered by browser-specific and platform-specific modifier keys. It even has browser-specific meaning. For example, Internet Explorer 7.0 will set focus when you press Alt+
. Firefox 2.0 on some operating systems you press Alt+Shift+ . Firefox 2.0 on other operating systems you press Control+ ); - I can't have hotkeys like Ctrl+Space;
