They are treated entirely like tooltips on at least Windows where you can't focus them at all.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the dropdown and focus-handling code in the Rust UI toolkit, then reproduce the problem on Windows; done means dropdowns can receive keyboard focus rather than behaving entirely like tooltips.
