Keyboard shortcuts not intuitive when shelf set to left/right

Project Member Reported by kjbooker@chromium.org, Sep 25

Issue description

Chrome Version: 70.0.3538.16 (official build) dev (64-bit)
Firmware version:  Google_Eve.9584.160.0

Using arrow keys to navigate through in order to select different apps are not intuitive when the shelf is positioned to the left or to the right.

What is the expected result?
When the shelf set to the right/left, navigate to different apps using up and down arrow keys.

What happens instead?
When the shelf is set to the right/left, navigate to different apps using the right and left arrow keys.

Would implementing this interfere with chromevox Left/Right focus?

Nope, it shouldn't. ChromeVox is using Search + Right as linear navigation (which will stay the same). 
version: 71.0.3567.0
Firmware: Google_Cave.7820.384.0
This issue affects ChromeVox as well. There does not seem to be a way to use the keyboard shortcuts while the screen reader is running.
Adding some more detail: this doesn't impact the code base or functionality of ChromeVox itself but the end result of this bug is that ChromeVox USERS are just as completely blocked as keyboard only users.

Nope, this shouldn't interfere with ChromeVox, though we'll be sure to test it.
