Description

which results in, when you have a mix of editable and non-editable cells in a row, that when you tab from cell to cell while editing (keyboard navigation enabled in the table) that the selection rectangle does not follow the input cells (which is very confusing to the user). The selection rectangle should skip the non-editable cells.

Research direction
Investigate the keyboard navigation logic in the Table component, specifically how cells are skipped during tab navigation. Look at the onKeyDown handler and the selection state. Relevant files likely include src/Table.js, src/Row.js, and src/Cell.js. Check the issue comments for any previous discussion on handling non editable cells.
