JIRAs

  https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAM-2042   Accessibility: IE 9 loses focus when navigating between screens using the keyboard
   - Not only is this is an ongoing issue, Morpheus will force us to decided what is the best behaviour in the new single page context.  The current practice (IE aside) is based on either simply the defaults of an iFrame or what was indented for focus during testing.
     -  Moodle & Canvas both place focus at the top of the page, with the skip to content link handy
     - JS solution to re-capture focus
     - Publish Assessment URL a solution?
