<p dir="auto">Repro:</p>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>Use "View/Toggle Menu Bar" to hide the menu bar</li>
<li>Press and release "alt", the menu bar appears</li>
<li>Try using the arrow keys or mnemonic keys ('F' for 'File' menu)</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">Actual: there is no way to interact with the menu bar from the keyboard<br>
Expected: same as the Hide Menu Bar extension for VS, where pressing alt gives keyboard focus to the "file menu", which allows navigating with the keyboard arrows or mnemonic keys.</p>
<p dir="auto">Windows 10, VSCode 0.10.8</p>
<p dir="auto">Navigating between File/Edit/View/Goto/Help using left and right arrow keys does not work. I can reproduce the problem in at least Windows 8 and Linux Mint Cinnamon 17.2.</p>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>navigation using arrow keys works in submenus</li>
<li>on Windows it is possible to switch between the menus using mnemonics (ALT-e to switch from File to Edit) but on Linux even this isn't working</li>
</ul>
