User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a8pre) Gecko/2007091005 Minefield/3.0a8pre
Build Identifier: Trunc Minefield

A number of problems with how menus are exposed in at-spi.

The menu children of the menu bar are not state_focusable when they should be.
They have a click action but it does nothing. They are state 'showing' and 'visible' though they are not visible. I think the structure is wrong (compare with a combo in the document) and should be: for each menu there should be a menu item, focusable, visible, showing etc with an 'open' action. The open action should show the pulldown child menu which then has state showing etc.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.look at menu bar in accerciser
2.
3.

right now I'm only seeing a single redundant object below the top level frame 
That's with latest nightly and I upgraded accerciser too.

Confirmed WFM.
I'm happy with the action name 'Click' on the menus
Thanks
