i open the kickoff menu with a keyboard shortcut hit right arrow to go to application menu. and then up and down arrows are non responsive(means marker not responding like in KDE 4.6.5).
further more th ESC. key used to go one level up in the menu ... it dosn't. it closes the menu entirely.

Same behaviour in KDE 4.7.0 on Arch Linux.
In the lists on the tabs Favorites, Computer, Recently Used and Leave it is possible to navigate with the up and down arrows, but in the list on the tab Applications the up and down arrows are ignored.
