    Description

      Steps to reproduce:
      1. This isn't a bug per-se, I understand why it's happening, but it took me a while to understand it and I think our users could be confused.
      2. Compile & run the keyboardWin app
      3. ALT + TAB to the Window or click on the titleBar to give focus to the Window
      4. Hit the Page Down key or any of the keyboard navigation keys (up, down, left, right arrow keys etc.)

      Actual Results:
      Nothing happens.

      Expected Results:
      Window should scroll. It could be that I need to skin a different way to add scrollbars, but regardless this is very confusing behavior.
      After you click onto the stage of the Window, subsequently switching focus back to the Window does show responsive keyboard navigation

      Workaround (if any):
      You have to tab into the stage itself or click onto the stage itself. It takes another step before the scrollers become responsive.
