I'm only now after manually creating the F7 & F8 keys for next/prev item when HTML pane has focus.
In testing (also trying to reproduce Armando's bug report Keyboard cursor disappears from the HTML pane when using keyboard shortcut to navigate in grid (f7-f8, etc.)) I had the following problem
 
Bug (I've reproduced it a few times) is:
with text in HTML pane click Menu > File > New MHT doc.
This brings up a dialogue box - click the x in the titlebar - you lose the contents of the HTML pane
 
After this, I cannot get the cursor to show in the HTML pane - have to restart, sometimes even then I cant get focus in HTML pane - it's almost like that item is damaged - if I first attempt to click in it's HTML pane I seem to lose the capacity to click in the HTML pane anywhere.
 
Ctrl+Z doesnt seem to work.
 
After restart, and if I first attempt to click in the 'lost' HTML pane, the pane switches to browser mode (which I have never used). Again the cursor will not show in HTML pane for any item if I click in HTML pane  of 'damaged' item first

I can confirm this bug -
above was with my regular install + regular database
 
Happens also with a clean (portable) install and a new db
 

Pierre I'm presuming you've seen this
Do I need to add it to Mantis?

There's definitely something screwy (new technical term) w html editing.  If I create a new item from the grid & then try to take notes in the html pane, cursor doesn't appear, i.e. can't edit.  This resolves itself after re-starting the program. I've found this and other anomalies like key strokes not working as they should after leaving program open overnight. Maybe this latter issue has some connection to do events that occur when the computer changes states.
