I’m failing to think of a use case for separation of what has focus and what will be activated when hitting enter. Seems like something an insane person would come up with.
The same use case why moving your mouse across a tab doesn’t focus it? It is important to have a difference between the current focus of actions and the state of each individual UI element. Keyboard users will want to be able to move their focus across the tabs without switching which one is active.
