Make tab switching consistent

One irritating thing about Ubuntu (I guess Linux in general) is the small inconsistencies. Take the way you switch tabs. In some places (like Firefox), you use Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+Shift+Tab to switch to the next/previous tab, which in my mind is quite logical. But then in other places (like Nautilu's properties dialog) you can't do that. Instead you have to use Ctrl+PgUp/PgDwn, which I think is quite confusing for new users. Also, in the aforementioned properties dialog this is very impractical because if you get to the tab "Open With" or "Notes", the Ctrl+PgUp/PgDwn key combo stops working! In yet other places (like gEdit) none of the above key combos work! There you have to use Alt+1/2/3/etc.!
That means that there are at least three different ways of changing tabs in the default applications of Ubuntu! In my view that is not acceptable! I don't mind there being different ways to switch tabs, as long as they all work in all apps. This is the case in Firefox, where you can use any of the key combos mentioned above to switch tabs. I would like at least the most known of these key combos (Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+Shift+Tab) to work across all apps in Ubuntu. Please! :)
[PS: I'm not sure if this should be in Accessibility or Look and Feel. If it's placed in the wrong category, I hope an admin will move it for me. Thanks!]

Please create and Ubuntu Service Pack (SP1, SP2, etc) like MS Windows.
If the user have to install Ubuntu, and there are a lot of updates, it will be easier to download an Ubuntu Service Pack (SP) with all the new updates, fixed bugs, etc.
Also it is very helpful for an IT team when they have to install or reinstall Ubuntu into several machines.
Regards
Felix
