Description of the problem:
The update-notifier applet seems to have the ability to swallow keyboard focus.
Once swallowed the keyboard focus is never seen again in that panel.
Steps to reproduce (tricky):
1. Focus the "top expanded edge panel" at the top of the screen with the
notification area in it (I usually do this using ctrl-alt-tab).
2. Press tab and check where the keyboard focus is (usually on the the firefox
globe).
3. Use tab to progress to the notification area.
Expected results:
Dotted outline around each thing in notification area, or dotted outline around
empty grey area if notification area is empty.
Actual results:
No dotted outline appears around anything. Pressing tab does not move to the
next widget in the panel practically impossible to get keyboard focus back to
the top panel again.
Additional information:
Killing off update-notifier allows the foucs to work as expected.
