we currently don't have a way to access the panel by keyboard.
gnome provides such a list which makes it faster to access panel components. 
we think it;s a good idea.

in the current scheme we have:

switch to next desktop
switch to previous desktop
switch one desktop to right
switch one desktop to left
switch one desktop to up
switch one desktop to down

maybe a good opportunity to shorten this list?!
