[Bug 219412] Re: There should be a more discoverable way to open kmenu from the keyboard

[Jay]

This is a great example of why Linux is awful for interactive/gui/desktop use.
Ok that it wasn't perfect years ago when I opened it.
But then refusal to improve it in the blindingly obvious way.
I gave up long ago and use Linux only for remote command line use with a wired network.
