Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 [attachment:24716.20.diff] adds keyboard navigation (left and right
 arrows) to the media detail modal. keyboard on the grid via tab/shift tab
 seems reasonable already, although full arrow key support including
 up/down might be nice

 Notes & questions:

 * when navigating the images, the modal is closed and recreated each time
 you change images; can we swap the content in place?
 * in order to properly capture the keyboard events, the inner part of the
 modal needs focus after being opened; this patch puts the focus on the
 first input field in the media details (url) - suggestions?
 * thoughts about adding some visual feedback (briefly highlight left/right
 arrows?) when navigating by keyboard?
 * uses ._once to avoid keyboard race conditions
