I’m working on my first fully 508 compliant Flash items. Does tabEnabled not play well with MouseEvent.CLICK?

When I remove the MouseEvent.CLICK handlers and set buttonMode to false, AND set tabEnabled to false, the buttons still tab through? I assumed removing the listeners would make these buttons unavailable to the tab key.

Could it also be that those buttons still retain their accessibilityProperties property?
