As a user, when keying the "tab + shift" command shortcut, I want the focus selector to move to the previous cell.
This is a common pattern in Excel, Google Sheets, etc.
As of now:
while using the range=true setting, using "tab + shift" triggers the selection range to focus on multiple cells from the current row
the "shift + right" keys are actually doing the same result
I think that we should get rid of this behavior to dedicate the "tab + shift" command shortcut to focus on the previous cell
while using the range=false setting, using "tab + shift" triggers the same behavior as "tab", ie. focus to the next cell
Preferred solution:
at best: adding the "tab + shift" to focus to the previous cell, plus get rid of the redundant "tab + shift" behavior when range=true
if not possible: provide the setCellsFocus method, offering the developer the benefit of adding its own event listener and making the focus programmatically
