Description:
Tab does not navigate between text fields in "Set remote configuration parameters" screen of "Create a new server instance" dialog.

How to repeat:
1) New Server Instance
2) Navigate past Specify Host Name and Operating System
3) Observe that <Tab> will not navigate between fields on the "Set remote configuration parameters"/"Host SSH Connection" form

Suggested fix:
Tab key should navigate between input fields/elements in all contexts.

Fixed as of the upcoming Workbench 5.2.43, and here's the changelog entry:

 The "Tab" key would not navigate field values in the "Set remote
 configuration parameters" dialogue of the "Server Administration" 
 panel. 

Thank you for the report.

I don't even know whether the "Set remote configuration parameters" dialogue of the "Server Administration"  panel *exists* 3 years after I first opened this bug, but tabbing between fields in Workbench configuration dialogs is still *horribly* broken, even in Workbench 5.2.44....

Can't tab between fields in the Parameters or Advanced tabs of the "Set the Database Connection values" pane of the "Create New Server Instance Profile" window. Nor can you tab between the fields of the "Information about MySQL configuration" pane ... or the "Specify commands to be used to manage the MySQL server." pane, et cetera.

Please re-assess this bug and attempt to fix it properly.

Still happens on Mountain Lion (MacBook Pro).

This seems to be fixed in 6.2
