What Sergey found is not general purpose but rather accessibility
tool shortcuts. In that case, progress bar is still not accessible
when using Tab, is it?
This bug is not about access of the components using Tab,
but about access information from the components using some native
a11y tools,
and each tool has its own way to access such components.
Exactly.
The bug report uses Tab key in Steps to Reproduce.
This could have caused confusion that Tab key should be used to select
progress bar.
At the same time, making progress bar focusable also makes it more
accessible: as soon as the progress bar receives input focus, its value
is announced by VoiceOver.
There was a suggestion [1] to call setFocusable(true) in JProgressBar
constructor.
That feels wrong, doesn't it?
