I think there are several problems mixed up in this report; sorry if I added to
the confusion by stating wrong things myself.  This is the current situation
that I face:

0) Ctrl-Alt-V opens the klipper menu.  I think it works for most people now and
is no longer what people complain about.

1) I can also highlight an entry with the cursor keys, with or without pressing
Ctrl-Alt (as found in a shortcut dialog) in addition.  HOWEVER, I cannot
'activate' an entry with Enter anymore, i.e. in order to close the popup menu. 
This is the most serious problem and is reflected in many  of the above
comments (starting with #4), even if the bug title does not describe this at
all (yet).  Actually, I only found a workaround some minutes ago, when reading
comment #21: Obviously, one can dismiss the menu by pressing Ctrl-Alt-V again,
and the currently highlighted entry will be the active selection! :-)  (No,
this is not good usability.)

2) It is no longer possible to have the menu at the mouse position.  As long as
the keyboard use is as difficult (unintuitive) as it is now, this is a big
problem, since you forced to move the mouse to the screen's corner and back
afterwards.  Even if that's fixed, it is still unconvenient to have to move
your gaze back and forth.
