Normally, one way to close a bookmark toolbar drop down menu is to click away
from it. However, when a PDF or Flash document is open in its respective
plug-in, Deer Park Alpha 2 does not register such a click from within that
plug-in, so the menu stays open until the user clicks on another part of the
screen or manually closes the menu.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create at least one bookmark toolbar item that has a menu (RSS feed usually
works.)
2. Open a PDF/SWF doc in the browser.
3. Open one of the bookmark toolbar menus.
4. Left/right click inside the plug-in's territory.


Actual Results:  
Drop down menu stays open.

Expected Results:  
Close the menu.

It seems that when (any?) plug-in is open, click notifications within the
plug-in space are being sent only to the plug-in. The described proper
functionality relies on both the plug-in AND the browser receiving click
notification.

Hmmm, maybe related, but this seems slightly different in the description. In
any case, it's still a problem in the latest nightlies.
