Our group is preparing to implement Superfish navigation-a multi-tiered, nested list, jQuery model. Meanwhile, we're trying to set some concrete guidelines for web accessibility and usability.

So: how many keystrokes is too many? At what point do consecutive keystrokes comprise a barrier? Should a user tab through 20 links? 40? More?

Any insight is welcome.
