Title: "alt+f" followed by "alt" brings up HUD underneath the File menu Status in unity-2d package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: 1. Open Firefox 2. Press Alt+F to open the File menu. 3. Press Alt to bring up the HUD Actual behvaiour: HUD appears behind the File menu. Expected behaviour: 1. *If* the HUD grabs Alt, it should cause the File menu to lose focus (which would cause it to disappear). 2. But knowing how menus work on X - they normally supress *all* global keyboard shortcuts. That includes things like volume keys, as well as e.g. Alt+F2. So it's slightly surprising for the HUD shortcut to conflict with the menu at all :). 3. Another point of consistency - once you're in the File menu, you can't use Alt+E to bring up the Edit menu. So being able to do Alt to bring up the HUD is not wonderfully consistent. I have no strong preference, but I think it'd be better if the HUD didn't come up at all. (Unless Wayland reverses #2 above, so that showing the HUD could be considered more consistent...)
