I try whenever possible to use the keyboard for everything, and when I updated from 10.6 to 10.7, I found most of the keyboard shortcuts for doing things like selecting the non-default option on a popup with multiple buttons, or more importantly, checking and unchecking radio buttons has changed.

It used to be that you could check and uncheck radio buttons by tabbing over to them and hitting the space bar. This doesn't work in 10.7 and it's driving my crazy.

It seems selecting the non-default buttons in dialog boxes has changed to hitting command-[the first letter of the option], but you used to be able to tab through the button and hit space on the button you wanted to "press".

These are very frustrating interface changes! I have to do this stuff all the time and I wish 10.7 worked like 10.6 in this regard. Does anyone know how this works in 10.7?
