Just to note ... I don't think Shelby was proposing binding the tab
key, just that there should be a similar function that doesn't utilize
blockquote.

For the record, I'd be totally against binding tab to a function
within the WYSIWYG.  I use tab to navigate forms/sites way too often
to have WP mess me up.
