ctrl+tab/ctrl+shift+tab is the default key binding in konqy to give keyboard 
focus to the next view, i.e. the same as tab, but skipping the location combo 
box (e.g. with two views ctrl+tab always changes to "the other" view)

I just tried it here combined with tabbed konqy (maybe one or two weeks old).
I opened three views, and then opened a new tab.
Then I pressed CTRL+Tab on the first tab (with the 3 views) and focus went 
from the 1st to the 2nd to the 3rd, then it disappeared.

It apparently moved to the view on the extra tab, which wasn't raised by this 
action.

Actually I'm not sure whether this functionality couldn't be combined, i.e. 
that CTRL+Tab not only walks through the views, buit also through the tabs.
See KonqMainWindow::slotCtrlTabPressed().
