How can we support accessiblity in scrollable composite? How to implement
it or
we should be able to inherit accessiblity behaviour from the scrolable
composite class.

The scroll bars should be accessed without the use of mouse.
ie using the arrows to move up and down or to get to its pop up menu and
do the scrolling.

When we use the Tab key, it does not go to the scroll bar in the composite.
We cannot invoke the scroll bar popup menu using any keyborad functions as
well.

On Windows, scroll bars create with SWT.H_SCROLL or SWT.V_SCROLL will not
take focus.
