I tend to agree about the properties drawers. Cannot come up with a
reasonable use-case for such kind of behaviour.
However, I have some use-case for cycling user-defined property drawers.

In some of my entries, I have long tables storing historical data.
These tables tend to be extremely long and I sometimes hide them inside
a drawer. Opening these drawers (or a customised list of drawers) on
<TAB> would actually make sense for me.
