Description

For those dropdown menus on upper right section, they have mouseover effects, however in the meantime being clickable which would trigger a hard refresh for anchor link. Current behavior of using 'f' would trigger navigation immediately, but you are able to see the expanded dropdown menu in a flash.

I saw similar issues listed before and also the thread on #1032 (but it closed?), but just curious to know is there any solution or usage suggestion? Thanks.

Research direction

Reproduce the dropdown behavior on the Amazon and IMDb index pages, then read the related discussion in issue #1032 and the earlier issues referenced here. The issue does not name files or tests; completion would require an agreed usage recommendation or a clearly scoped change for the mouseover and anchor-navigation interaction.
