bug#500: Things have become considerably worse

reopen 500
thanks

Hi,

it seems that the fix for this bug was not correct, since things have
become considerably worse since it was installed.  I observe that

- pressing F10 ESC leads to the cursor being lost
- pressing F10 -> Edit -> Paste from kill menu -> ESC leads to the
  cursor being lost and the Edit menu being highlighted.

In both cases the only way back to a sane state is to temporarily
activate the menubar with the mouse.

Please try again and let us know if it is correct now.

It's definitely better now, thanks.  The only thing that still doesn't
work (and never did, AFAIK) is to open the menubar with F10 and then
select a menu entry with the mouse.

But I wouldn't mind if you closed the bug anyway.

Regards,
        Sven

I've made a change for that.  All your cases work here, but please test it again.

This fix should go in to the 22.x branch, if there is to be another release
from that branch.

Thanks,

Works perfectly now, thank you very much. :-)
