Contains accessibility and keyboard navigation specification of Telerik and Kendo web components.

## Keyboard Shortcuts

| Shortcut | Behavior |
| -------- | -------- |
| `Alt` + `Down Arrow` | Opens the ColumnMenu Popup when focus is on the Grid header cell or on the main column menu button (depending on whether the Grid is navigable or not). Focus is trapped and wrapped within the Popup. |
| `Tab` | Navigates to the next focusable element in the Popup. If current focus is on the last element, moves focus to the first focusable item in the Popup. |
| `Shift` + `Tab` | Navigates to the previous focusable element in the Popup. If current focus is on the first element, moves focus to the last focusable item in the Popup. |
| `Enter` | For column menu items, executes the currently focused item action. If item is expandable, expands or collapses the item. |
| `Escape` | Closes the ColumnMenu Popup and returns focus to the header cell or the main button. |
| `Down Arrow` & `Up Arrow` | Moves the focus to the next/previous item when focus is in the ColumnChooser list of options. |
| `Space` | Toggles the checked state of the focused ColumnChooser option. |

> All internal components follow their own keyboard navigation when focused.
