Comment:
I made a quick patch, but it still needs lots of work
'''What it does'''
:focus now mimics the :hover behavior of the non-default color schemes:
The background color becomes the highlight color, icon and text are white.
I adapted the same behavior for the submenu links.
In the submenu this works in most cases, but we may need to define another
color variable for ''text of focused links in submenu'', because in some
color schemes white doesn't work so well. Also in several color schemes
some colors are not defined, and the default doesn't work well either.
(You will see what I mean, when you test the color schemes.)
'''The Arrow'''
The arrow looks really bad (especially in the non-default color schemes),
when the focus is on the element of the submenu that is next to the
parent. (I guess that's why they did the highlighting in the way it is
implemented now.)
