RadRibbonBar now supports keyboard naviagtion in pretty much the same manier as
the desktop RibbonBar, which can be found in Word/Excel etc.
Due to the specifics of the web browsers, activating the key hints is not possible
with a single command key as it is in the desktop ribbons (the ALT key). Instead,
a key combination should be used. The default combo is Alt + R, however, it is completily
possible to customize it using the CommandKey and FocusKey,
which are part of the KeyboardNavigation configuration section.
Press ALt + R to activate the RibbonBar and show the key hints.
Important: The keynavigation will only work if there is a tabindex set on the ribbon.
Due to how the browsers work, it is not possible to focus the ribbon otherwise.

- Click on button
