390529 - When clicking out of a right click menu in BOOKMARKS, the entire Bookmarks menu closes

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 195031

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[SP]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.5) Gecko/20070713 Firefox/2.0.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.5) Gecko/20070713 Firefox/2.0.0.5

I did notice one thing that keeps "bugging" me in Firefox.  I can best describe it by example:

I open Bookmarks menu from the main "File, Edit menu bar."  I right click on a bookmark.  However, I realize that I did not want/need to right click on this particular bookmark.  Now if I try to click out of the "right click menu," and click on another bookmark, it closes the whole bookmark list.  Arghhhh!

This can be annoying when your bookmarks are organized in maybe 2 to 3+ layers down in folders.  I would have to go back all over again, which just takes up time, and is simply annoying.

Do you think you can make it where this would not happen?  I should be able to stay within the bookmark menu without having to navigate back when I click out of the "right click menu." 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right click a bookmark in the Bookmarks menu bar at the top
2. Left click on another bookmark
3. Entire Bookmark menu disappears!!  For those with Windows, try doing this in the start menu and you will see how it is suppose to be.
