Should pressing tab indent a list item when typing in a list block?

[twsp]

Issue Overview

When typing in a list block, pressing tab moves the focus to the next block, rather than indenting the list item you are working on. Obviously, this is a design choice, but I feel it would be more intuitive if pressing tab indented the list to create a sub-list, so you don't have to press the "indent/outdent list item" buttons, since this is how most text editors function.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Create a list block
2. Add an item
3. Under it, add another item, but try to indent it by pressing tab (imagine that item 2 is supposed to be a sub-item under item 1

Expected Behavior

Pressing tab should indent the list item.

Current Behavior

Pressing tab moves the focus to the next block, which I feel is less intuitive when typing.

I'm closing this issue as this has been discussed and dismissed for accessibility reasons (see #1640 (comment))

(i.e. if an editing "mode" is introduced, it might make sense for tab to indent lists)
