Hello there,
My name is Cezar, I work at GE Healthcare design system and have a question regarding the breadcrumb component.
Take a look at the example below

We are trying same behavior:
- Hover-triggered contextual popover
* When a user hovers over any non-terminal breadcrumb node, a popover is displayed showing all navigable destinations available within that level of the information hierarchy.
* This pattern extends traditional breadcrumb navigation by revealing sibling and child pages without requiring a page change, reducing navigation friction in deep hierarchies
* At the last interactive level, pressing tab will change focus to the next interactive element on the page.
* At the first interactive level, pressing shift+tab will change focus to the previous interactive element on the page.
* To select a page, press enter when breadcrumb is in focus. Navigate to selected page and reset focus to page level.
*
Breadcrumb will inherit focused, focused hovered and focused pressed states.
We have some questions about keyboard interactions:
“Tab" will move to the next interaction available, “Enter" will navigate to/open the breadcrumb page. How should the user move from breadcrumb to popover options?
Thank you very much
