Both the native and custom menu selects will open when focused and the spacebar is pressed. However, the custom menu version doesn't seem to ever gain in focus when opened - no options have hte ui-focus class and no keystrokes seem to affect it.

This should have the same keyboard shortcuts as the native menu - arrow up/down changes the selected option, spacebar or Enter selects the option and closes the select.

This is an issue in 1.0.1 so it's not a recent regression.
