Two (separate) Bookmark dropdown menus can instantiate and stay visible.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.click once on a bookmark dropdown menu.  
2.click twice on another
3.

Actual Results:  
voila!  Two dropdowns visible!

Expected Results:  
Cleared the first dropdown.

I just installed the latest build and previously had version 1.4a.  I noticed
that when the new build was finished and Mozilla loaded, i had an additional row
of items below the bookmarks.  This dissapeared when i closed the initial
mozilla window and loaded a new page.

Attachment: Nifty menus allow two open at the same time

This illustrates two open dropdowns.

Why do you don't read the release notes before you filed this bug ?

New Additions to the Release Notes

These are items that have been added to the release notes since the last
milestone although the bugs themselves may have existed previously.

    * Folders on the personal toolbar do not collapse properly for Mozilla
running on Windows. (Bug 204770.)

Sorry, I didn't read the release notes.

Since the menus worked perfectly in the previous installation and not in the new
one, i considered this a potentially new bug.  Had it existed in the old
version, i might have done better due diligence in making certain it was not
already reported.

As it is, i did the required searching for anything matching this and after 20
minutes of scrolling through reports, could not find anything that suitably
matched.  I did find one bug that had to do with the way submenus resolve, but
this was not close to my problem.

As i am still new to this process, and a layperson, please cut me a little slack
:), and teach me.  I am willing to learn.

Thank you,
