You can reduce the number of 'active' fields, and hence tabbing, through 
the Preferences' menus, if you're prepared to accept the defaults for 
the 'not displayed' fields.

Ideally, a tool that allowed one to personalize the main QSO window, 
such as which fields are displayed, in what order, and the formats for 
those fields, would be address nearly everybody's 'complaints'. But... 
to incorporate such complexity (bug-free, of course), maintain it and 
troubleshoot the resulting myriad of possible user configurations would 
be a horrendous. Not impossible, but would probably entail more 
time/effort than the developers can devote to this product. In the 
meantime, we have something which is somewhat configurable, reliable and 
predictable.
