Reporter, can you try this in a fresh profile?

Changing the Summary to something a little less obtrusive, and the severity from
Enhancement to Normal.

Reproduced sporadically on Mozilla 1.8a2 build 2004052307
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8a2) Gecko/20040523

This problem doesn't reproduce all the time.  The Edit menu appears as it should
when attempting to reproduce on subsequent new browser windows.
