Ss the original reporter of this bug, I know that this bug is about what
I just described.

So thank you for pointing out bug #758550. I have marked it as a
duplicate of this bug so we don't lose the valuable comments on this
bug, both about fixing it (from mpt, David Barth, Karl Lattimer) and
about accessibility problems raised (from Timo Jyrinki).

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: indicator-datetime
  
- I am using the indicator-applet-complete
+ If whilst you the date indicator is focused, you press the down keyboard
+ arrow (and focus the calendar) then the left/right keyboard navigation
+ breaks. The keyboard effectively gets "stuck" - there's no escape from
+ the calendar.
  
- I would expect to be able to use the left/right keyboard arrows to
- navigate through the different indicators.
- 
- Test case: say I click on the sound menu, then press the right button
- twice, to end up on the Datetime Indicator. From this position you can
- use the left/right position as expected. However if whilst on the
- Datetime Indicator you press the down keyboard arrow then this
- functionality breaks. Even pressing the up arrow (to undo the down), and
- then left/right does not work.
