GXT 2.1 - How to disable the default behaviour for HOME and END keys in the TabPanel ?

Problem:

I have a TabPanel with few tabs, and one of them has a "properties" editor. Some properties are edited using a TextField cotrol, and when I want to go to the beginning or end of the field I press, naturally, the keys HOME or END, and then the TabPanel container changes the selected tab to first one or last one... so I lose my focus on field editing ... very very ugly  indeed ! Workaround is "don't use HOME and END keys", but I can't help it -- I press them all the time :)

Is there a solution for this problem?

The answer for this question is very simple, YES, like the solution itself.

Solution:

We have to override the "pressed key handler" (good thing that it's protected, and not private), which is providing this ugly behavior, like in this sample code:

public class MyTabPanel extends TabPanel {
    /**
     * Override this function to get rid of the HOME, END keys problem.
     */
    @Override
    protected void onKeyPress (ComponentEvent ce) {
         /* do nothing */
    }
}

and then use the MyTabPanel instead of the default one. I know, this is an ugly simple solution, but efficient!

Cheers!
