Please describe the problem:
Originally reported at https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/333406:

When I open the Gnome menu using the hotkey Alt+F1, and the menu is on an auto-hide panel, the menu appears immediately, and then the panel animatedly unhides below it, while the menu stays in place (i.e., on top of the panel). The menu then jumps to a different (correct for an unhidden panel) location once I use the keyboard to move into the menu (Down key) or to switch to the next menu (Right key). I'd expect it to move to the right location straight away while opening, or to stay closed until the panel had unhidden or something. This just doesn't feel right.

It gets weirder and downright buggy when you try this:

Alt+F1
Right
Down

The effect: the panel HIDES AGAIN while I still have the menu open.

Steps to reproduce:



Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
