Dear Maintainer,

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I tried using Orca's object navigation and flat review modes to interact
with and click the controls.
* What was the outcome of this action?
It didn't work.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
The controls such as find and main menu should be accessible using the
keyboard. Why isn't main menu mapped to F10 like apps such as
gnome-terminal?

I encourage you to try the ptyxis app instead of gnome-console. It has
F10 working by default (with an option in Preferences to disable it if
someone needs that shortcut for something else).

I'm linking to the upstream issue for gnome-console above.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
