These aren't arbitrary actions, but standard menu actions (open menu, close it, activate an item). Also not sure how forcing clicks entered the scene. These are possible via keyboards in many frameworks already today.

The dev has "predicted" the menu by creating it in the first place? The framework just made sure that this menu is addressable by the user

That's not a big loss, it's not like we've come to expect any serious testing of UIs anyway

> The developer has broken the standards

Yes, so? I don't understand the point relevant to this discussion. Should standards not exist if they can be broken? Should frameworks not try to make following standards easier? Should frameworks not allow user customizations if devs can find a way to break them?
