I'm on trunk. I tested building the widgets sample and then I can tab
past the combos. 

And I also tested a stand-alone minimal sample dialog and it also works
from there. 


There are two settings where it does not work:

A - From inside my 'managed dialogs'. A dialog is generated from a 
script (the script produces snippets of XRC). It uses the function: 
wxXmlResource::LoadObject( ... ) to create individual widgets. 

B - From inside the Find/Replace dialog of wxStEditor. I believe these
dialogs are generated from wxDesigner. I don't think it uses XRC(?).


Not sure what makes the difference in these settings.
