From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m16) Gecko/20000518
BuildID:    2000051820

When text is hilited, and the user right-clicks to copy text, the pop-up window
does not disappear after "copy" is clicked.    If the user then tries to move
the Mozilla main scrollbar while that pop-up menu is still up, all hell breaks
loose!      (The copied text is dumped into the URL box, the mouse causes the
scrollbar to move no matter where the mouse is on the screen, etc..)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load up http://www.mozilla.org
2.Hilite some text with the mouse
3.Right-click and click "copy"
4.Move the Mozilla scrollbar or try something else	

Actual Results:  The pop-up menu remains on the screen and Mozilla acts all
sorts of goofy.  (see above)

Expected Results:  The pop-up disappears when "copy" is clicked
This seems like a possible dup of two or more other bug. Pinkerton has a bug on
the context menu not going away on paste, and Kin has a bug on d&d interfering
with the selection (39821).  cc'ing them for comment.
Sounds like event state gets botched, reassigning to saari, cc joki, evaughan,

Resolution: --- → DUPLICATE
verified dup of bug #28773 for the failure to dismiss the context menu on copy.
The other (whacky) part of this bug is now covered by bug #39821 (D&D doesn't 
play well with Selection).
