Bug Description

Binary package hint: software-center

Currently, items in the navigation pane can only be activated by clicking on them. They should also be activated when selected using the up/down arrow keys.

To reproduce:

1. Open Software Center and click on the "Get Software" item in the navigation pane.
2. Use the "down" arrow key to navigate to the "Installed Software" item in the navigation pane.

Expected: The Installed Software view is displayed.
Actual: The view doesn't change; the Get Software view remains displayed.
