Good reminder, Pat. I think you hit upon the easiest solution in your final sentence: “if you’re already defining some fancy styles for :hover, by all means feel free to also make them display on :focus)”.
At Clearleft we do tend to turn off outline for focus states, however we also always include styles for hover states, so our rule is: wherever you have a:hover also include a:focus.
