keeping buttons off of tab groups? [message #446176]

I've googled this to no avail. I have a couple of buttons in my dialog
that perform somewhat drastic actions. Therefore I do not want the user
to be able to tab to them to minimize the chance of them being
accidentally selected. How do you knock buttons off the tab group? I am
not sure tab group is the right term, but I am referring to the group of
controls that get selected when the user hits the tab key.

Composite.setTabList(...) should help you here.
