There is no provision wherein we can set the tab key
order for rendered components. For example If I want to
set a specific tab key order for a Form generated using
the Echo components I simply cannot do it.

I feel there is a need of this specific property as most of
the users expect the tab key order in a specific way.

I feel the main Component class should have a method
setTabindex() or setTaborder...whatever may be the
method...while rendering the component as HTML
<input> field if the tabindex attribute is set then apply
the same to the input component.

<input tabindex="1" type="text"> ......

This is a very useful feature provided in the HTML which
is not present in Echo.
