Comment:

 IMHO we would need to review the use of `tabindex` everywhere. It seems
 it's not needed in many places and some are incorrect.

 The order of "tabbing" through the screen is very important for screen
 readers. All browsers do it consistently from left to right and top to
 bottom so we would need tabindex only where we want to break that order
 (like on the edit post screen where title and content should be 1st and
 2nd).
