Description:
As I tab through the Import Plugins dialog, I can't use the space bar to press
the next button.  This could be an accessibility issue.

Next button is provided by the Wizard class - moving to JFace.

Please determine whether this is a UI or SWT problem.
Comment 3 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-04-29 09:23:17 EDT 
Verfied it works on Win 2000 - likely a SWT problem.

The issue here is now Linux shows focus.

In the case of the next button when you tab it looks like there is focus on the 
next button as it has a square around it but it is actually on the button at 
the top of the dialog. If you tab to the back button and then hit the right 
arrow key you will see what focus actually looks like (double box). Space works 
then.
