1184698 - Right-click on a word should follow OS-specific conventions

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1116391

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Jeff Griffiths (:canuckistani) (:⚡︎)]

See: https://twitter.com/rauchg/status/621425628630286336

Steps to repro:

1. open any page with text on it
2. right-click over a word

Expected Results (on OS X):
* the word should be selected and some standard menu items should be available, eg 'Lookup in Dictionary' as per the tweet.

Actual results: 
* the word is not selected, and even when you do select a word items like 'Look up in dictionary' are missing.

Aside: probably need to do a much larger review of platform integration on OS X, but IMO it shouldn't stop us from fixing bugs like this ad-hoc.

Hey mstange, this feels Mac-Spotlight-y... is there a better place for this bug to live?

We have bug 1116391, but it's in the same component... I'll at least tag the bug so that it shows up in our queries.
