More keys are not enabled in editable fields, for instance, `n' and `p':

    Move to next button or editable field.     n
    Move to previous button or editable field. p

They can be used only until point reaches the first editable field.
After that keys get inserted literally to the field.

Perhaps cus-edit should bind `C-c C-c' and `C-x C-s' in a new keymap
inheriting from widget-field-keymap.
