so what's next now ?
I looked at your test site. Using Tab (which is how I believe keyboard users navigate) does not select MaxiMenu at all. The first Tab selects the "logo", then there are 3 more Tab presses which don't appear to select anything (I tried pressing Enter during these Tab presses but nothing happened so I'm not sure what's in focus at those times). On the 4th press, the Home on the side menu comes into focus and is selectable.
Due to accessibility issues, I am now trying very hard to avoid menus with any sort of dropdown, because, as you said earlier, these are problematic to use without a mouse.
If MM would allow tabbing through each item, including dropdowns, that would work, though it would be tedious for keyboard users when there was a big menu. Alternatively, adding keyboard shortcuts to menu items (at least the top level ones) would work too and cut down on tabbing. So, say there's a couple of items with a dropdown, assign the first a keyboard shortcut A and the second one B. When a user uses the keyboard shortcut A the dropdown appears and the user is able to tab through it.
I agree this whole thing is not 100% simple, however it isn't going away either. And there are lots of disabled people surfing the net who want to use our sites, so we really need to ensure they can. I don't have anything against that, but I DO have issue with the evil people who are setting out deliberately to find site owners to sue.
