A small design niggle: the Tab key jumps you around on the LBN start thread screen

When using the screen to create a new LBN thread, the tab key takes you from Story title to Link to Source, as expected (and as before). But the next tab jumps down to the "Show errors" button, which is rather confusing (I then scrolled back up, and accidentally put the excerpt in the Comments box). The next tab jumps back up to Excerpt; the next jumps down to the "Show tips" button, and the next back up to Your comments. Then we go down to the Preview button.

It would be more usable if the Tab key took you down in a regular order, as it used to (and as it does on the regular Start Thread screens).
