Known Bugs:
Windows: you need to click and give focus to a new control before anything reads
Windows: when you click away from a stage and come then click back on the tile, the focus is not re-read

| MenuButton | HelloMenuButton | Reads text on button | Mac:VO+Space opens menu Win: CL+Space opens menu | On Mac when the menu opens the focus is assigned properly to the context menu and it doesn't work.
