44460 - <menubutton> w/ no <menupopup> doesn't respond after first click

Status: NEW

(Core :: XUL, defect, P3)

Description

[Tim Hill]

A <menubutton> element should function the same as a <button> element if no 
<menupopup> child is present.  This is not presently the case.  If you click a 
<menubutton> with no <menupopup>, the button is drawn in the "down" state, but 
the "up" state is never drawn.  A click/mousedown on the button again makes the 
button draw it's "up" state.  However, after this, even though the button still 
fires the "onclick" event and other mouse events, it is no longer visually 
showing the button depression (this is best seen in the Modern skin).  
Furthermore, if a new <menupopup> is then dynamically added as a child to this 
visually unresponsive <menubutton>, clicking on the button does not show the 
button-menu.

Could you fix this by making menubuttons behave as they do in 4.x on Windows?
