Thanks, Wolfgang.


1. Our FAQ contains more than you wrote. That's a given I can't change.
2. Your last paragraph does answer my question.
3. The focus is done by JS focus() method rather than CSS. Don't know
why yet. Since it's called when the page is loaded, I'm hoping that won't
hurt accessibility.
