I like this as a concept, but I wouldn't recommend to build websites with it. I wonder how user-accessible websites built with famo.us are — for example I can't just use my arrow keys to navigate up/down and tab'ing through elements does not move the scroll-bar accordingly, this could be an issue for some, older internet users.

You can build that functionality if it's really a problem. Also surfaces within Famo.us afaik are just like normal sections on a webpage where your normal tabbing and arrow keys will work.

But if you're building more traditional looking web apps in famo.us, I don't think you'll run into the issues you're talking about.

There definitely are some accessibility issues especially for those with limited mobility where using the arrow keys is a necessity.
