Steps to reproduce:

I right-click free space on a loaded webpage to open a context menu including back/forward arrows, reload, and bookmark controls.

Actual results:

If the click is performed low enough on the page that the context menu would overflow the screen at the bottom if it opened, the context menu opens going upwards form the cursor position. This positions the Back/Forward/Reload/Bookmark buttons at the maximum distance from the pointer, making them much harder to reach.

Expected results:

In situations where the context menu opens "upward", the quicknav buttons should appear at the bottom of the menu, right next to the pointer.
