Arrow Keys are focus-limited in Safari
The main problem (as alluded to in the above post), is that the [CMD]-[Arrow] combination is focus-limited in Safari. In pages that (unfortunately) use frames or where the mouse focus is on an embedded object, rather than the page containing it, [CMD]-[Arrow] tries to affect the object, not the page being viewed.
Personally, I don't understand the logic here, but it has made me change my habits to [CMD]-[Bracket], (which really only meant that I had to change a mouse button assignment, and little else.)

Actually, the use is Cmd-left bracket to go back and Cmd-right bracket to go forward. The Cmd left & right arrow keys only work in some instances.

Yeah, I realize that each bracket and arrow direction sends the browser location in that direction (when that direction is available within the window's history). I just didn't feel like writing out each instance twice, when I was using the general case to explain the limitation of using the arrow keys, in regards to their mouse-focus limitations, whereas the bracket-based navigation is globally window-focus-based.
