605402 - arrowing is broken inside a Firefox menu button

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[alexander :surkov (:asurkov)]

The user should be able to use arrow keys to navigate through menuitems of Firefox menu button. 

1) When I click on the button then arrow down key doesn't move selection into menu.
2) hover mouse on "new tab" menuitem, down/up arrow keys move selection between this item and menuitem for its submenu; no way to move to other menu items
3) hover next menuitem like "start private browsing" - you can move between all items but "new tab" menuitem
4) no way to get into bookmarks menu placed on the right; bookmark menu items have the same symptoms as "new tab" menuitem and related menuitem for its submenu.

Able to reproduce. In Firefox menu button, New tab Menu item does not open the sub menu as in case of "web developer" menu item. When i hover over "web developer menu item, it opens the sub menu automatically. Other menu items which have sub menu options does not open the sub menus automatically. Need to hover the right arrow key, then it displays the sub menu items.
