Title:
  indicator applet traps keyboard focus

Status in Indicator Applet:
  Confirmed
Status in “indicator-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I believe that only metacity provides keyboard access to the gnome-
  panel, so this bug is not relevant for compiz, unfortunately.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Press ctrl+alt+tab and select the top panel.
  2. Tab through the applets until you reach the indicator applet.
  3. Press left/right to bring up the dropdown menu (this is unintuitive, I am going to file a separate bug for that).
  4. Select a conversation or application ("Pidgin Internet Messenger").
  5. Press enter.
  6. The buddy list is show/hidden.
  7. There is no way to get keyboard focus out of the panel without using the mouse (ok, there probably is, I just can't find it!).
