Dialog Navigation
The user should not have to use the mouse to be able to use an application. In fact, it is often more efficient to navigate a dialog using the keyboard because the user does not need to switch to the mouse. Furthermore, it is easier to navigate by keyboard when one's only available pointer device is sluggish (e. g., a touchpad or a touchpoint).
