Errm, in my opinion, this is the behaviour I expect from Tab and Shift-Tab
in grids - it permits me to move around the visible rows specifically
*without* triggering a scroll event. If Tab/shift-tab caused a scroll
event, I would have to treat that as a bug, as users would be left without
the means to navigate freely in the visible view.

Hmm. Perfection is in the eye of the beholder. If you want this
behaviour, why not just make your own ib_grid descendant? *Delphi* is
perfect for meeting non-standard requirements.
