Web UIs, with newer web standards, are approximating the richness of fat
client applications.  Of course, it's a good bit of work over the
already difficult work of building a good web UI, so lots of
applications are still fairly limited in their keyboard-entry features.
I think UI-guru partner Randall has done a fair amount of keyboard-entry
stuff with SQL-Clinich, but unfortunately we don't have a public demo
yet.
