It sounds like madness, but Firefox (checked on 82.0.3) on macOS (checked on 10.15.4) doesn't allow tab navigation on the links! We found it when test how focus-lock helps to keep focus inside the dropdown menu.

At the same time, it works on Firefox on Windows 10.

I set the checkbox

Use keyboard navigation to move focus between controls

in the System Preferences - Keyboard -Shortcuts and now it works well.

This problem is not directly related to the focus-lock. But let it be there for the next guy who will be close to spending a lot of time to understand why it doesn't work.

It's more about Chrome not working according to OSX standards than Safari/FF working strangely. They actually doing everything as expected.

Yep, it's not about FireFox only
