The Bug:
The book GUI can no longer be navigated using the TAB key and arrow keys.
In 1.19.3, the book and quill GUI could be navigated using the TAB key and arrow keys. In 1.19.4, it no longer can. This behavior was lost somewhere between 1.19.3 and 1.19.4.
Steps to Reproduce:
Obtain a writeable book and open it.
Press the TAB key and arrow keys multiple times in an attempt to select elements.
Take note as to whether or not the book and quill GUI can no longer be navigated using the TAB key and arrow keys.
Observed Behavior:
The book and quill GUI can no longer be navigated using the TAB key and arrow keys.
Expected Behavior:
The book and quill GUI would be able to be navigated using the TAB key and arrow keys, just like how this was possible in prior versions of the game.

This also affects the arrow keys. Can the issue be updated to include that information, to avoid having unnecessary related issues?
Title:
> Keyboard navigation does not work in the book & quil GUI
Description:
Replace all instances of 'TAB key' with 'TAB key and arrow keys
I can reproduce in Minecraft snapshot 24w11a. The buttons can be focused, but get quickly unfocused afterwards, so while it's technically possible to navigate the book UI with the keyboard by quickly pressing the navigation keys and activating the correct button, this workaround is clearly not ideal.
Can confirm in 23w32a
