Not sure, maybe this is the initial idea here but:

this its how its done in other operating systems and would be the best way to have it always high in contrast for guys with people problems as well.

chempfling added a comment to D16988: [Kickoff] Make the visible search field unfocused by default.

Okay so from what I can tell:

(1) Kicker takes the focus off the search field when you go through the results by either mouse or keyboard. This makes it easy to go back to the search field by typing or using the arrow keys (to add more words etc.)
(2) Krunner becomes unfocused if you use the arrow keys, but not if you hover over the search results with your mouse, and it's still possible in either case to append your search same as in Kickoff.
(3) Kickoff (the old, the master and this patch) seems to leave the search field focused at all times while you go through the results, and it's possible to add more characters to the search like in (1) and (2).
(4) Clipboard behaves pretty much like this patch except pressing the Esc key doesn't make it unfocused again.

Any thoughts on how to reconcile all these differences? It might take some doing 😅

Another idea, what about imagine the desktop as a "big window" and "just" make Tab (focus next control) or ctrl + Tab (focus next panel) chain working here. just like in an normal window.
Would be natural (and consistent) as well and you could just use tab to cycle the plasmoids.

chempfling added a comment to T7034: Accessibility in KWin window switcher.

OK, I seem to have reached something surprisingly simple: D16638 and D16664 give me a tab box that works with Orca.
The requestActivate is needed to get the focus into the window, the window manager hint has to go (are there side-effects?) and after that pressing alt-tab announces a window containing labels for all other windows. The role should be adjusted, but compared to everything else that should be rather trivial.

The keyboard navigation for the system settings is completely broken. Focus chain doesnt work. The sidebar often looses the focus magically. This should not only fixed for a11y reasons. This is also a kind of good usability. This effects everyone not just impaired people.
