 > Same as above, here's a reproduce for Windows v2.5.0:
 > 1. Activate Buddy List
 > 2. Press [Tab] until the "Status button" is highlighted in dots.
 > 3. Press [Enter] or [Space] to activate the "Status" drop-down.
 > 4. Press [Arrow keys], they do nothing.  You cannot choose one, only
 press [Enter] again.

 > Also as noted by #3341 , there is no way to active status any other way
 via keystrokes.

 This works fine for me on Linux. I don't see anything Windows specific, so
 it could be a GTK+ bug.

 Replying to [comment:9 spoof]:
 > Not only can you not use the arrow keys, you still cannot start typing
 the names of your statuses to jump to them, as described in the original
 description.

 On Windows, this is a [GnomeBug:520165 GTK+ bug]. See #4966.
