For example in the IDE the tab with focus could/should have a visual indication of it.

This depends on the shell desktop theme you use (on Linux, I mean).
Active tab in TheIDE is always highlighted. It works well for default themes, such as Adwaita/Dark on Gnome, and Breeze/Dark on KDE. On some themes the difference may not be very visible.

On the homebudget also no visual indication of where the focus is, and in my case I can't see how add anything because I don't know where the focus is unless it's one of the buttons.

Yes, because at the moment it seems that the focused GridCtrl does not seem to have a highlihgted frame when empty. This can be filed as bug, or UI improvement.

Do you know if there is any specific documentation describing the in built keyboard navigation strategy used by Ultimate++ ?

That's not well documented at the moment but hopefully it will improve. IF you are curious, the best way to understand how it works ATM is to check the Key() method of various ctrls.
U++ also has a redefinable accelarator key support (You can see it in theIDE, or in the reference/AK)
