[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Tabbing out of a table with TableViewereditor on it

Hi,

looking through the "new" apis for tableviewer keyboard navigation i came across this snippet: http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.jface.snippets/Eclipse%20JFace%20Snippets/org/eclipse/jface/snippets/viewers/Snippet035TableCursorCellHighlighter.java?view=markup

My first problem with it is if you change the Selection type of the table to Single instead of MULTI after one tabbed into the table and navigated through it one can not tab out anymore meaning you are trapped on the table ).

Another point is that i am still missing a way to let the table headers gain focus ( necessary for accesability reasons since without that you cant sort columns with the keyboard and have to name the column title before reading out the cell for every cell you traverse ...) did something happen in this field?

The last thing i have concerns with is the FocusCellHighlighter. Is there a basic implementation available, which basically does the Job the one supplied with the snippet does? And whats the reason for still having the org.eclipse.swt.custom Tablecursor when using jface?

Thanks,

Philipp
