Public bug reported:
WIth jayatana installed and locally-integrated menus turned on, when I
run a swing application (eg) netbeans and hold the ALT key down so that
the menu is displayed across the titlebar, if I press another key (eg
the F key) I expect the matching menu to drop down (eg in this case the
File menu).
What actually happens is nothing - the menu does not drop down. This
means that in Ubuntu 15.04, I cannot select the menu at all using the
keyboard - I have to use the mouse.
A workaround is to uninstall jayatana (and restart the session, or you
can't run any swing apps), but of course you don't get the locally-
integrated-menus anymore for swing applications.
