Bug Description

If you click on the time, a menu appears with the full date (as a menu
item), a calendar, an 'Add event' menu item, and some other bits below
that. With the menu open, pressing down-arrow highlight the full
date. Pressing it again moves the focus into the calendar. At that
point, there appears to be no way to get out of the calendar using the
keyboard. The arrow keys work to go from day to day. I thought Tab
or Shift-Tab might work, but they had no effect.

At a minimum, if the user presses the "Esc" key when "stuck" in the calendar then they should be exited from the calendar menu.
