 What did not work: clicking on escape on the category dropdown menu led to
 redirection to the category page

 My videos show that there was a redirection to the category page after
 applying the patch

 I am using the tab key to navigate to the dropdown category menu > click
 on enter > use arrow to a category > click escape, as a result there was a
 redirection to the category menu before and after the patch

 A question: should I place the category menu in a specific place?
