User Experience:
Users who rely on screen reader/Keyboard will not be able to perform action efficiently if shortcuts are not working for the dropdown menu items.

Test Environment:
OS: Win 10 2004 Build (20262.1010)
App: Windows Terminal
App version: 1.4.3243.0

Repro Steps:

  1. Open Windows terminal app
  2. Press "Ctrl+shift+Space" key to open the dropdown control.
  3. Navigate to the Menu items.
  4. Now press shortcut key defined for menu item say "Ctrl+," (which is defined for settings menu item).
  5. Observe the issue.

Actual Result:
User is not able to perform action using shortcuts defined for the dropdown menu items.
Pressing shortcut key defined for menu items, nothing is getting activated.

Expected Result:
User should be able to perform action using shortcuts defined for the dropdown menu items.
Pressing shortcut key "Ctrl+," settings should get open.

Yep, that makes sense. This is a variant of #6679, but with the new tab dropdown, instead of the command palette.

Do users really expect keyboard shortcuts to work while a menu is open? Compare to Notepad in U.S. English:

  1. Start Notepad.
  2. Press Ctrl+Shift+S. The "Save As" dialog box opens.
  3. Press Esc. The "Save As" dialog box closes.
  4. Press Alt+F. The "File" menu opens.
  5. Press the Down arrow key four times. The "Save As… Ctrl+Shift+S" menu item becomes highlighted and the menu remains open.
  6. Press Ctrl+Shift+S. The "Save As" dialog box does not open. Instead, there is a sound, and the menu remains open.

@KalleOlaviNiemitalo
I completely agree with your point.
If we are inside the menu and we'll use the shortcut key, it won't work.
@Chandresh1007
If the behaviour is just like @KalleOlaviNiemitalo then it is not an issue.
Else, please describe.

As the shortcut keys are working when the menu is closed. Hence, closing this bug.
