Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a file with the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx">
<s:layout>
<s:HorizontalLayout paddingLeft="10" paddingTop="10" />
</s:layout>

<mx:ColorPicker />
<s:ComboBox>
<s:dataProvider>
<s:ArrayCollection source="[one,two,three]" />
</s:dataProvider>
</s:ComboBox>
<s:DropDownList>
<s:dataProvider>
<s:ArrayCollection source="[one,two,three]" />
</s:dataProvider>
</s:DropDownList>
<s:Button label="Button"/>

</s:Application>

2. Run in the browser.
3. Put focus on the ColorPicker and try to open it using Space key.
4. Tab through ComboBox and Button also trying to activate them using Space key.

Actual Results: ComboBox and Button are activated using Space key, ColorPicker is not.

Expected Results: ColorPicker should use same keys to activate as ComboBox for consistency.

Workaround (if any): Subclass each control and override keyboard shortcuts (maybe).
