@zadjii-msft commented on GitHub (Dec 13, 2021):

ideas:

  • How do you tab navigate to the infobar in VS?
  • Same question, but with Word?
  • We should consult with the WinUI folks and see what the guidance is here.
  • Last resort, we add an "Alt wormhole" where pressing Alt without any other keys lets you press tab to get into the tab strip/infobar for tab navigation, and a setting to disable that wormhole as well.
