From bug 66834, context menus should also not eat clicks outside themselves. 
This is Windows-specific, based on bug 66834 comment 77.
I strongly agree, most un-windows-like :)  And inconsistent with Netscape 4.x.

Is this bug just for right-click menus or for all menus?
Ian: bug 66834 fixed menus off the menu bar.  This bug is just for context menus.
Hey you're right, its fixed for the menu bar.  That's great news :)
Should context menus never eat clicks, on any platform? I don't think they
should. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Sorry, I wasn't reading correctly. Windows only.
Jesse, does this patch help with the Phoenix forms autocomplete?

Treat xul:popupset like xul:menu, for purposes of determining click consumption

I like simple.	r=me

Yes, this fixed Phoenix form autocomplete (tested Phoenix 01/07 nightly).  I
think it also fixed Phoenix address bar autocomplete and Mozilla address bar
autocomplete (bug 66834).
Right-click menus no longer seem to eat clicks, but the menus from personal
toolbar folders (including bookmarks) still do.  Build ID 2003011405.  Win98.
Context menus in MailNews still eat clicks.  Should I raise that as a separate bug?
