Description

You are able to tab around, but the jQuery tabs to the left of the last moved jQuery tab will not get focus. Pressing shift-tab will only cycle through the jQuery tabs to the left of and including the last moved jQuery tab.

Steps to reproduce:

1) open the reorderable jQuery tab page from the daily build site:
http://build.fluidproject.org/fluid/sample-code/reorderer/jquery-tabs/jquery-tabs.html

2) tap the "tab" key until one of the reorderable jQuery tabs gets focus.

3) use the keyboard (ctrl-arrow) to move the tab.

4) press the tab key and notice that it never touches the jQuery tabs to the left of the one that was moved.

5) press shift-tab and notice that it will only cycle through the jQuery tabs to the left of and including the one that was moved

Environments

IE6, IE7 (Win XP)

    The tab key shouldn't actually be moving focus amongst the tabs, this is a bug in jQuery:

    If the arrow keys still work properly, I would consider this one to not be a bug.
