Public bug reported:
When accessing a menu with the keyboard, mnemonics for the drop down
menu are not immediately visible. Thus, one cannot quickly spot the
mnemonic needed to open a menu item.
Steps to see the issue:
* Open gedit
* Press Alt+f to open the file pull down menu: menmonics cannot be seen. Only
pressing the down arrow to highlight the first menu item will reveal the
mnemonics
Desired behaviour
On opening a pull down menu with the keyboard, mnemonics are visible, so
the user immediately can proceed typing the correct mnemonic (if he does
not yet know it by heart).
Another issue (for another bug report): after opening a pull down menu
with alt+letter, one has to first release the alt key for the
accelerator letter to work.
