Research direction

Start by reproducing the focus behavior at https://docs.pwabuilder.com/#/builder/android in Microsoft Edge on Windows, following the listed keyboard steps. Trace the left navigation and Home control implementation; done means activating Home leaves focus on the Home control and the next Tab moves from that control rather than directly to Github.
