Title:
  Holding Alt does not reveal application menu on almost all software

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Holding the Alt key should reveal the application menu as per keyboard
  shortcuts, but this only works on Gecko applications like Firefox and
  Thunderbird on my Ubuntu 13.10 system.

  For the rest of applications, I'm forced to use Alt+F10 and then
  navigate using the arrow keys to the menu entry I'd like to press, or
  use HUD. Gedit, Pidgin, Terminal, etc. won't display menus when
  holding Alt.
