Issue Type: Bug

With "window.titleBarStyle": "custom", after opening any menu either by clicking on the menubar or with an Alt+* shortcut I can't close it and return focus to where it was before by tapping Alt once, only by hitting Esc twice (which is a bit awkward).

Pressing Alt to close the menu and return focus is an old Windows convention, and all other applications that I have running atm on my W7 machine follow it: Windows Explorer, Firefox, Adobe Reader, N++, foobar2000, qBittorrent, etc.

VSCode itself allows to move the focus to the menubar by pressing Alt and to return it back by pressing Alt once again. But as soon as a menu is expanded it takes the focus to itself and doesn't return it on Alt, so it's also inconsistent.
