Navigate with the TAB key in a PropertyGrid

You are now able to choose between two major modes. In the first one you need to validate or cancel the current edition of the value and use the arrow key to go to the next editable property. In the second one , you navigate to the next inplace control with TAB and to the previous with shift+TAB. There are also several non-exclusive options for all tastes:
The "TabKeyWithAutoFocus" option will focus inside an inplace control as soon as you click on a property label. This is a great way to minimize the actions required by the end-user.
The "TabKeyInSubControls" option will allow to access child components in inplace controls. For example, for a trackbar feel, TAB will first go in the textbox part and another TAB will jump to the slider.
The "TabKeyInChildProperties" option will open any collapsed hierarchy to place the focus in the next editable property value.
The "TabKeySkipReadonlyProperties" option will skip readonly properties. Without it, these properties are visited so that a clipboard copy operation is possible while navigating the grid with the keyboard.
At last, the "TabKeyLeavesAtExtremes" option will normally tab to the remaining controls in a form once the top or bottom properties are edited. Without it, the focus will continue to rotate in the PropertyGrid.
There will be a small sample available to showcase all those modes in a few days.
