Problem Suppose for one reason or another, you need to make a button clickable but not activable by keyboard, i.e. button does not receive focus but remains clickable as shown below:
Solution Maybe this is another item that is yet to be documented. Anyway, just add the following one-liner to make the button clickable but does not receive focus.
$button->set_property('can-focus', false);
