Metadata
Description
Tabbing through the metadata demo skips over the bold/italic/underline buttons in the toolbar. There is no way to access these buttons with the keyboard.

2014-01-06T14:59:24.577-0500 I have explored making the B/I/U buttons part of the tab order. However, when you tab away from the editable content, the selections are dropped. This means that when you activate any of the buttons, they do not have any effect as no content is selected to change.
As an alternative for keyboard users, we can implement the traditional keyboard short-cuts for these actions.
