Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] HTMLPopupElement - <popup> (#680)

E.g. at least on every operating system I'm familiar with menus and tooltips have very different focus behaviors, if nothing else.

These are very good points - there will definitely be some behavioral differences among these element types. I wasn't saying all of these elements would behave the same, I was saying that they (might?) all share the three "basic" behaviors with `<popup>`, in addition to some others. Or perhaps even some tweaks to the three.

Let's [continue the discussion within the issue](https://github.com/openui/open-ui/issues/410) - there will likely be more people who can weigh in.
