Did you ever try https://defkey.com/what-means/ctrl-shift-f6 ?

What I found there:

Microsoft Word 2019 : Goto previous window
Opera: Switch to previous tab
Adobe Illustrator: Navigate to previous document
SSMS: Move to previous document
Adobe Acrobat 2017: Move to previous open document window
Microsoft Front Page: Switch to previous window
IBM Cobol Editor: Previous Editor
Micosoft Teams: Goto previous section
Bluebeam Revu: Previous document
Microsoft Access 2019: Switch to next or previous database window
Microsoft Power Apps: Move to previous stream
MindManager 21: View previous map
Sage 50: Move to previous window
Tableau: Cycle backward through open worksheets

I don't think that users would expect that this key combination would toggle
the keyboard focus between text and controls. I think the sidebar guideline
probably did not consider a well established use of the Ctrl+F6 and
Ctrl+Shift+F6 key combinations. LibreOffice does not offer a common
functionality and due to the use of the Ctrl+F6 combination in the sidebar it
probably cannot offer it.

Remark: My proposal to use Alt+F5 was motivated by the idea to remove the clash
with a as little a change as possible, just by using a different modifier key.
That's a workaround for me but probably not the best shortcut for this purpose.
