Wonderful! Thanks for all the hard work on it.
I'm sorry I have to start complaining now.

There has been a big change in the menu popup code. The only annoying
problem I have with it is keyboard control of menus. In v.45, when a
menu was popped up with the keyboard, you could go to a submenu by
pressing right, but now it seems you need to emulate moving the mouse
and have to press right several times to move the mouse a little by a
little until you are far enough to the right to activate the menu.
This is much slower and seems like needless typing. What was the
reason for modifying the menu action like this? Are we assuming
people will be using letter shortcuts instead of pressing right/left?
I would need to add these to all the menus now...is it possible to get
a way to emulate the old method?
