CSS Focus styles not defined

Description

I've milestone this for 1.2 as the fix is simple and has a fairly important usability impact for people who use the keyboard as the main means of navigating a site.

If you try to navigate around http://testbp.org/ using the tab button, you've got no way of seeing which element you currently have "selected".

This is because bp-default uses Eric Meyer's reset.css which has the following section. I have had a quick test removing this (and leaving it to browsers' defaults) and visually it looks fine. My recommendation would be to just remove these lines from reset.css.

/* remember to define focus styles! */
:focus {
	outline: 0;
}

I feel the changes made are insufficient. For example, when I tab between the main menu nav in the header, I can't visually see which menu item is selected.

I don't really want them to show on the tabs otherwise whenever you click one it looks like junk. I think this is something you should add in your child theme if you want it.
