Right click on a bookmark does not work on Mac.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
For Bookmarks Menu, Sidebar Bookmarks, Toolbar Bookmarks and Bookmarks Manager perform the following:
1.	Right click on a bookmark.
2.	In the context menu, select "Open in New Tab"

Actual Results:  
For Bookmarks Menu – Context menu does not display, page opens in active tab just after right click.
For Sidebar Bookmarks – works correct.
For Toolbar Bookmarks– Context menu does not display, page opens in active tab just after right click.
For Organize Bookmarks – works correct.


Expected Results:  
A new tab should open in the foreground and the bookmark page should load in it.

I have this problem also. When I right click on any of the item in the Bookmarks menu, the context menu does not pop-up, instead, the active page loads the bookmark. This issue should be fixed before the firfox3 is shipped because it makes bookmark management inefficient and unpleasant. This problem started to happen after I installed FF3 RC2

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
