I tested it and it is buggy doesn't work consistently

When split view is active (two panes visible), pressing Tab switches
focus to the other pane. When split view is not active, Tab behaves
normally (GTK default focus traversal).

The handler runs before GTK's default key-press processing so that
Tab is intercepted before it gets consumed by the focus chain.
