[MlMt] spacebar: scroll message, or toggle headers?

[Bart Lipman]

I'm confused by the behavior of the tab key.  If the focus is on the 
mailbox list and I hit "tab," I get the focus on the message list.  But 
if I use a keyboard shortcut to switch mailboxes and then hit "tab," I 
end up in the new search bar.
