Description Philip Muskovac 2010-01-21 17:14:43 UTC 
In the new Network manager it is not possible to tab through the 'Add static IP' fields since pressing 'Add' to add an IP creates an address line that is basically non-tabbable. The user has to click each field after typing in the values. Clicking 'Enter' confirms the line.

The fix would probably be to allow the usability of tabbing between fields and allowing auto addition of netmask.
