When pressing arrow key down in a menu, any sub menus automatically expand and draw focus from the main menu. The only way for the user to continue down the main list is to press then LEFT arrow to get back into the main tree.
This is not the way keyboard navigation works in most GUIs e.g. Visual Studio:
Comparing keyboard navigation of menus that have submenus in Visual Studio vs Terminal.Gui
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Create menu with multiple submenus
Press down arrow multiple times
Expected behavior
It should be possible to keep scrolling down a menu using only up/down. Submenus should only expand on pressing RIGHT arrow (when using keyboard only navigation).

Through the mouse the sub menus are auto expanding. So, I understand that they must have different behaviors.
You have to be aware that currently if you press the right arrow key the next menu from the menu bar will be selected.
Therefore the solution is, if the current opened menu has no sub menu, pressing the right arrow key the next menu from the menu bar will be selected. Otherwise the sub menu of the current opened menu will be opened. The same logic have to be used for the current sub menu opened and so on.
