Details

Build ID: 1999081008
Platform: Windows NT (investigating Linux, Mac OS)

To reproduce:
- Launch apprunner
- Right-click on the Mozilla.org button (for example)

Result: Mozilla.org is loaded.

Expected result: Nothing should happen (there are no contextual menus for
toolbar buttons).
Assignee: joki → hyatt
left and right clicks are only differentiated via the 'button' property on the
event object.  We'll need to start checking this before activating UI.  Sending
to hyatt at its either his or he's knows who to give it to.

Actually, there will be contextual menus for toolbar buttons.

This shouldn't be much of an issue for the content area, since the content area
will have a right-click capturer that will consume the click.  As for clicks in
the chrome, well, there will probably have to be some checks added on the part
of UI designers.
