Keyboard accessible navigation for items with children when sidebar is collapsed #5097

Description

@jonah-reup

Summary

When the navigation is collapsed, there isn't a way to access child navigation items using only the keyboard.

Examples

Parent items are focusable using the keyboard.

When the navigation is collapsed, child items are displayed in a modal. But, displaying the modal that contains child items appears to depend on a mouseenter with no equivalent keyboard option.

Motivation

Users who depend on the keyboard to navigate should be able to interact with the navigation in any state.
