[bug or design?] focus_next/previous_ui_element should handle gui icons? (ex: search dialog)

[rahil627]

possibly not a bug and just a design choice..

it looks like these were somewhat recently added:

# Added after migration to version [16]
Tab                         focus_next_ui_element
Shift-Tab                   focus_previous_ui_element

press c-f
press tab

though it works for jumping text-fields, as in search_in_project (c-s-f), i kinda expected it to work for search_in_buffer, to go to the next ui element, which are the little reg-ex/whole word/match case icons..

Those icons are not focusable - and I'm not sure if making them focusable would be worth it

ohhh dang, i didn't expect it to be a big thing.. but yeah it makes sense, if it's not like a gui widget sort of thing in the code, and simply just a rendered image..

no biggie, i actually should be using the mouse/touch-pad/touch-screen more! :D those key-bindings just seem to keep slippin' my mind..

Alt-C toggle_case_sensitive
Alt-W toggle_whole_word
Alt-R toggle_regex_search

close [this issue] if you want!
