Add accessibility to the Spreadsheet control

It would be great if you would add accessabbility to the spreadsheet as it seems to be the last control without this feature.

Currently the focus gets trapped inside its grid and the user cannot leave the spreadsheet with the TAB key. At least this should be avoided. It would be also better if only the first cell would be focusable and you then could navigate with the arrow keys, as with thousands of cells it is not very comfortable to use the TAB key.

Hello Seuthes,

The Tab-out navigation has been added to the Spreadsheet. When within the widget the user could press Ctrl + End (which will move the focus to the last cell in the Sheet) and then Tab to focus the very next focusable element on the page. Similarly to go back to the Toolbar when within a Sheet, the user could press Ctrl + Home and then Shift + Tab.
