[YouTube-API] Keyboard Actions Accessible without Click

I've got the video running on my web page and everything is OK except
this: For accessibility the web page should be usable without a mouse
but the only way to get at the keyboard actions in the YouTube player
is to click on the video with the mouse and then use the keyboard to
navigate to the various YouTube controls.

I really need to set focus or trigger a click event from JQuery that
will have the same effect as the user clicking on the video with a
mouse, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do that. What ID
can accept focus or a click event?

It's the HTML5 player so I expect the place to put this is in the
onReady event of onYouTubePlayerAPIReady.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
