I'm currently working on bug:50168 (korganizer), and I need some user input on 
the behavior of the tab key in the edit events dialogbox.

I'm actually not sure if we should "solve" the tab problem described in
the bug report. With QTextEdit it is possible to use
TextEdit::setTabChangesFocus(bool b) to achieve what the bug reporter
wants to have (namely that when editing the extensive event description,
the tab key jumps to the next control in the dialogbox instead of
entering a tab key).

Sometimes, I find this problem also quite annoying, when I want to walk
through the controls using the tab key. As soon as you reach a text
edit, you are stuck there, and pressing tab doesn't get you to the next
control. So using setTabChangesFocus(true) might not be such a bad idea.
On the down side, however, sometimes you might want to enter a tab in
the description, so disallowing tabs at all in the text edit is probably
too radical.

What do you think?

Reinhold
