I see what you mean by separating groupings of controls from individual controls. I also understand that the main issue, then, would be: How do you define the location entry... is it one control... or many?

I guess where we differ in opinion, then, is that you believe the location entry combo-box should be treated as an entire grouping of controls, since no-one would use keys to cycle between controls on a toolbar. I, on the other hand, believe that the location entry combo-box should be treated as every other combo box... as a separate control.

Tabbing in the location entry would be considered a break in consistency for accessibility reasons, however. What you're advocating is breaking the 'rules' (so to speak)... ie; having one special case where keyboard shortcuts don't work as advertised. As annoying as pressing the down arrow might be (initially, I've pretty much gotten used to it now), I don't see any way around it.
