Title:
  [regression] pressing and holding the alt key in a GTK app does not
  show the menu bar

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in Unity GTK+ module:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using the Unity Dash, launch the Text Editor application (gedit).
  Press and hold the Alt key.

  Expected Behaviour:

    The menu bar is displayed in the Panel.

  Actual Behaviour:

    Nothing happens.

  Note that Qt-based applications and Firefox continue to display the
  menu bar when the Alt key is pressed and held.

  This bug causes the
  unity.tests.test_panel.PanelWindowButtonsTests.test_window_buttons_show_when_holding_show_menu_key
  Autopilot test to fail in the Unity project.
