User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

1) Run Firefox
2) Run at-poke and poke at Firefox (it shows up as Mozilla to its a11y friends)
3) Click on the "Expand" button in the at-poke window for Firefox/Mozilla
4) Scroll down the expanded tree.  You'll find:
   The "File" menu has a "File" menu 
   The "Edit" menu has an "Edit" menu
   The "Toolbars" menu of the "View" menu has a "Toolbars" menu
   And so on.

In general, menus should not duplicate themselves in the hierarchy like this.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Run Firefox
2) Run at-poke and poke at Firefox (it shows up as Mozilla to its a11y friends)
3) Click on the "Expand" button in the at-poke window for Firefox/Mozilla
4) Scroll down the expanded tree.  You'll find:
   The "File" menu has a "File" menu 
   The "Edit" menu has an "Edit" menu
   The "Toolbars" menu of the "View" menu has a "Toolbars" menu
   And so on.

In general, menus should not duplicate themselves in the hierarchy like this.

Actual Results:  
1) Run Firefox
2) Run at-poke and poke at Firefox (it shows up as Mozilla to its a11y friends)
3) Click on the "Expand" button in the at-poke window for Firefox/Mozilla
4) Scroll down the expanded tree.  You'll find:
   The "File" menu has a "File" menu 
   The "Edit" menu has an "Edit" menu
   The "Toolbars" menu of the "View" menu has a "Toolbars" menu
   And so on.


Expected Results:  
In general, menus should not duplicate themselves in the hierarchy like this.  For example, instead of:

  File
  +--File
     +--New Window
     +--New Tab
     +--Open Location...
     ...

It should be:

  File
   +--New Window
   +--New Tab
   +--Open Location...
   ...
