Comment (by mattwiebe):

 Just following up: Nacin's computer is possessed; nobody else can
 duplicate his issue.

 Did discover that the "puck" and slider controls weren't keyboard
 focusable in Safari (but palettes are). Further investigation revealed
 nothing about why not (open to anyone who might know something).

 But I **did** recall that Safari handles a lot of keyboard stuff
 "uniquely." Sure enough, Preferences –> Advanced has a "Press Tab to
 highlight each item on a webpage" option that defaults to off. Looks like
 they're using some type of internal algorithm to decide what's focusable
 when it's off. Enabling the option makes everything behave smoothly from
 the keyboard.
