@Robert Carr; I've assigned this to you as it might be related to the
general focus grabbing issue you are looking into at the moment
(Launcher reveal when menu is open, clicking outside of the Dash,
etc...), please un-assign yourself if this is incorrect.

** Description changed:

  Reproduce scenario :
   - left click on an applet
   - try the ^-Alt arrow to switch desktop
  
  When an applet contextual menu is opened, you can't switch desktop with 
keyboard shortcuts.
  Normally,we should have a consistent behaviour in regards with the 
workspace-selector applet, ie :
   - first ^-Alt-arrow (for the workspace-selector : click), the menu is 
unfolded
   - second ^-Alt-arrow , we go to the next desktop

  see bug 29894 for not being able to take screenshots when menu is open,
  another symptom of this bug.

+ ----------------------------------
+ 
+ Note from Design:
+ 
+ This is a critical bug, a user should be able to use a global keyboard
+ shortcut at any moment, including when a menu is open.  In the unlikely
+ case that there is a conflict between the global keyboard shortcuts (
+ see
+ https://launchpadlibrarian.net/85352653/Super_key_shutcuts_overlay.png )
+ and the menu keyboard shortcuts, the menu keyboard shortcuts should take
+ precedence.

** Summary changed:

- Can't use any global keyboard shortcuts or hotkeys when applet/menu is open
+ Keyboard shortcuts, window management - Can't use any global keyboard 
shortcuts or hotkeys when applet/menu is open
