This was true in all versions of Mac OS until Panther, making it
impossible to be compliant with the requirements of Section 508, the US
federal accessibility guidelines which require software to allow all
controls to be accessible from the keyboard.
Fortunately this has been corrected in Panther (see the Keyboard panel
in System Preferences: there's now an item labeled "Turn on full
keyboard access").
Unfortunately, Rev's tranversalOn does not currently honor this setting
on Mac OS.
Whether or not you deliver software to the blind or other groups for
whom this feature is critical, if you have a chance at US government
procurement know that until this feature is in place your Mac product in
many cases cannot be considered for government purchases until this is
supported.
I have logged this feature enhancement request to Bugzilla -- please
consider voting for it:
