Public bug reported:

Wanted result: Open "Gimp" by using only the keyboard, without letting go of 
the standard keyboard-stance, asdfjklö.
What happens: I Open the meny with <alt>-<F1>, but there I'm stuck. The "g"-key 
doesn't respond
Reproducable: Yes
Platform specific: No

Ok, in Windows I use the <super>-key to launch the menu. In Gnome/KDE I
can live with the <alt>-<F1>shortcut, but when I want to stop down to
"Graphics" I hit the "g"-key and nothing happens, the highligthed
alternative doesn't jump down to "Games", (and of course neither after
another keystroke to "Graphics").

BUT when I in this mode hit "s" as in "System" - I then change the menu
to "System" and THERE I can navigate through the menu-options by
pressing the "a"-key repeatedly I choose between "Administration",
"About Gnome" and "About Ubuntu".

I think this is a usabilityproblem that should be solved - we shoudn't
force the users to use the arrow keys when it could be done otherwise
(and more correct)
