Description vblanchard CLA 2011-05-31 18:15:06 EDT 
Build Identifier: 

In tab "Text Compare" of the Preferences view "Compare/Patch" we can use Tab to go forward all the elements but when using Shift+Tab to go backward (eg start from Restore Defaults), the focus chain gets stuck in the Preview part.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Windows > Preferences > General > Compare/Patch > Text Compare
2. Set the focus on the button "Restore Button"
3. Navigate backward with the keyboard using Shift+Tab

By default the TextViewer does not allow to loose focus via Tab and Shift+Tab. If the underlying widget is read-only then Tab allows to loose focus hence we should also allow it when using Shift+Tab.
