Although simply pressing <Tab> multiple times does eventually move the cursor, it'd be nice to do it with Vimac.

Pressing ... what? :) Tab, I think.

Ah, <Tab> isn't an HTML element, Github! 🤣 Fixed.

This is a bit tough - the message box is represented as a web area instead of text field. I wonder how i can differentiate a web area that you can directly type into (this mail example) vs a web area that you can't type into (e.g. Safari, Chrome)

Is there harm in adding a hint to a web area that doesn't contain any other hints? Or would there just be tons of those?

Vimac currently does this for AXRows - if a row doesn't contain actionable children, then it is hinted. I don't see why this rule can't be applied to web areas.

Or would there just be tons of those?

There are at most one or two web areas on screen at a time usually, so it should be fine. The same cannot be said for Group elements though.
