Title:
  Keyboard shortcuts, window management - Can't use any global keyboard
  shortcuts or hotkeys when applet/menu is open

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit:
  Won't Fix
Status in Unity:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Reproduce scenario :
   - left click on an applet
   - try the ^-Alt arrow to switch desktop

  When an applet contextual menu is opened, you can't switch desktop with keyboard shortcuts.
  Normally,we should have a consistent behaviour in regards with the workspace-selector applet, ie :
   - first ^-Alt-arrow (for the workspace-selector : click), the menu is unfolded
   - second ^-Alt-arrow , we go to the next desktop

  ===

  see bug 29894 for not being able to take screenshots when menu is
  open, another symptom of this bug.

  
  ----------------------------------

  Note from Design:

  This is a critical bug, a user should be able to use a global keyboard
  shortcut at any moment, including when a menu is open.  In the
  unlikely case that there is a conflict between the global keyboard
  shortcuts ( see

  ) and the menu keyboard shortcuts, the menu keyboard shortcuts should
  take precedence.
