Details
The file webroot/rsrc/css/core/core.css has the following declaration:
a {
outline-style: none;
}This makes all links within the site have no focus indicators, which makes keyboard navigation pretty challenging.
Before I even try to figure out how to either open an issue for the above, or make a pull request for it myself, I'd like to just ask (since asking a question is the only place I could find),
Is there a reason why that declaration was put there in the first place?
Answer Summary
Huh? Am I supposed to answer the question myself?

Thanks for this question, I was not aware of this CSS rule, and this:

It seems it has the origin here:

And it has no explanation.
I would say: patch welcome!
Not an answer (but this is in Ponder, sigh): Removing that one CSS line looks pretty bad in Chromium 124 with that outline being cropped in many places:
