Describe the enhancement you want to request

In the TUI, the arrow keys and H/L are options to cycle through the options in the permission request, looking to add tab and shift+tab for cycling them as well.

  • #9447: Allow numeric key press to select permissions requests (related feature for faster permission selection)

I've made a hook in my app for this so it doesn't keep popping up called useScrollKeys which manages navigating the index of a list using the arrow/vim/tab keys that could centralize this logic if that sounds useful
