Read, Barrie et al,

duel was a bad pun, my apologies

I've set up a demonstration you can try out here: http:// 
www.peepo.co.uk/main.svg
it is rough, you will need to use firefox1.5.

please use the tab key to navigate the document, then try the mouse,  
however what happens when you use both?
well they operate independently*. Tab navigates along a line, so is  
linear, whereas mouse works across a plane, so is planar.

Would a normal user prefer the mouse and tab key to follow each  
other, with enter and click moving the window to a single destination?

Are there any games out there that already deal with this type of issue?

*Note: window.status and the 'title display' can only show one result.
click and enter key visit different URLs
n.b. ff1.5 bug means tab does not update window.status
