Description Pawel Piech CLA 2009-02-25 14:14:35 EST
The reason for this is that the drop-down viewer does not receive the focus after user clicks on the item in the breadcrumb.  I'm not 100% why it is designed this way, since I copied the behavior from JDT, but I believe that this is intended to allow for better keyboard navigation of the breadcrumb items themselves.  

A good compromise may be to give the drop down focus after the pointer enters its area.

Patch with a potential fix.

This patch implements switching focus to the drop-down when user mouses over the drop-down shell.  I'm hoping to get some input from the JDT editor team about the breadcrumb about it though.
