+1. Although. If you are careful, you can actually improve the appearance of this focussing ring (or rather the focus state) within the context of your page. I have seen cases where the (default) focussing ring was hard to see: heavily styled sets of tightly grouped navigation links on dark backgrounds. In those cases, it can be useful to style the a:focus state just as one would style the a:hover state. (even leave the default focus ring in place, but add additional clues: colour/background-colour changes, font-weight, etc).
