I have lots of extensions installed and these have extended the "right click on
a web link" menu vertically as additional extensions have been added. The menu
sometimes fits on the page and sometimes not. Usually the problem occurs ( the
menu overflows ) when I want to select the menu option at the top of the right
click menu which is the "Open link in new tab" option. When I right click on a
web page link and this menu choice is not available I have to scroll the page up
or down to move web page link so that the full menu will appear. Having to do
this is very irritating when the menu code could be re-written to allow the menu
to fully appear on the screen every time ( the menu is not that big that it
won't fit the screen ! ). Can someone fix this ?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hover the mouse over a web link that appears towards the top of the screen
2. Right click the mouse
3. The top part of the "right click menu" may now have overflowed above the
screen becoming in-accessiable. 

Actual Results:  
The top part of the "right click menu" may now have overflowed above the screen
becoming in-accessiable. 

Expected Results:  
Shown *all* of the menu on the screen.
