Description Jeremy Browne 2003-04-22 01:08:14 UTC 
The menu bar's context menu is called, when the user right-clicks within
the menus on some dead space.

The easiest way to reproduce is to open the Actions menu and then
right-click one of the dividers. Can also be reproduced irregularly while
right-clicking as one moves the mouse up and down a top-level menu full of
items.

Does not seem to happen within submenus, as there, most menu items have
their own context menus.

Also appears not to happen with the 'Main Menu' applet.

Hmm, I've committed Glynn's patch but it was nothing to do with this
bug :-)
