I'm from the accessibility project. Yes, this is an accessibility issue. People
with severe motor impairments may only use a limited amount of keyboard keys,
or only the tab key, to interact with websites.

The code used in this feedback tool is complicated, and it is beyond my
knowledge to find where the precise problems lies.

However, I have written a guide that explains where the issues might be, and
how to fix them. It should be easy and straightforward for a seasoned
developer.

In short, the issue might lie with the HTML elements used for the interactive
components. Using elements meant for interaction should solve this problem (A,
BUTTON, and such). The second possibility is related to mouse event handlers:
adding a redundant keyboard event handler solves the issue.

Cheers, Rodan Bury
