That doesn't sound like any focus interface I've ever seen in Windows.
 Therefore it seems like it will be confusing.  Windows uses tab and
shift-tab to change focus.

I don't care how the underlying implementation works as long as the
appearance to the user matches normal conventions.  But isn't there already
a concept of a taborder that buttons can sit in and have the focus manager
handle focus traversal automatically?
