Description Jack Hill 2023-02-15 23:07:10 UTC

SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start discover and make sure the "Home" tab is open (should do by default)
2. Make sure the search bar has focus (should do by default)
3. Press tab once
4. Press enter

OBSERVED RESULT
One of the sidebar items is opened. There is no way to know which one will open.
Interestingly, if I manually select the search bar (even if it already had focus), then the Games category opens. Otherwise the "All Applications" category opens.

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be some highlight to show which category is selected

This was reworked a while ago; the selected item should have a clear highlight.
