Leaving this for other people that may be looking for the answer. it’s fairly easy to do in C++.

FNavigationConfig struct in the Slate application controls which keys are responsible for UI navigation.
To simply turn off tab navigation, follow the code below.

#include "Framework/Application/NavigationConfig.h"

#include "MyGameStateBase.h"

void AMyGameStateBase::BeginPlay()
{
	Super::BeginPlay();

	FSlateApplication::Get().GetNavigationConfig()->bTabNavigation = false;
}

You may also make Your own NavigationConfig by subclassing FNavigationConfig, if You want more control (like dynamically turning the nav on/off)
