Comment (by Pete):

 Sorry it took a while for me to get back to it, but I've made a couple of
 added revisions that I think fix all the remaining problems I could find.
 (Patch attached.)

 Combining mouse and keyboard navigation was causing a lot of problems,
 mostly because the menu currently being tracked could be different from
 the one keys were manipulating!  I think now there are sufficient
 safeguards to prevent anything nasty happening; no more lock-ups, anyway.

 I noticed -- and fixed -- one other oddness.  Menus with a single item
 could not be entered from the keyboard!  I don't believe the autodecrement
 change I made can do any damage.
