Summary0020967: Issue with tab key when popup is opened in grid
DescriptionLet say that I have configuration as it could be seen on the screenshot. Music > Genres, Grid (Genres) view: if I click or press Alt+down to any genre in grid, the popup will open; if I press Tab key after that, nothing is happening, neither the Play button in the header nor the first album in popup gets the focus, the dashed line cannot be seen anywhere. The focus will be given to the album in popup just after one more Tab press.

However, if I press left or right arrow keys after the first pressed Tab, the focus will be transferred to the previous/next genre in the grid; also, if I press the up arrow key, the focus will be transferred to the genre above the one with the opened popup. However, if I press the down arrow key, the context menu will be opened!

This is wrong behavior. When I press Tab key, the focus should be given to the Play button in the header of popup, and another Tab press should give focus to the album in popup.

I am not sure if this is related to the 0020796 issue.

I suggest deferring, since most users using the keyboard would just press ENTER rather than opening the popup.

It seems we don't understand each other. The popup is already opened. The issue is manifesting after that, because the keyboard focus is wrong after pressing the Tab key.

What I meant is that if the user is only using the keyboard, then they're unlikely to use the Popup functionality to begin with (i.e. they're much more likely to use ENTER than ALT-DOWN), and so although I completely agree that this is a bug, I'm just suggesting that it can be deferred.
