Details

When a menu is open (such as File, Edit, etc.), and the mouse wheel is turned, the menu disappears. Primarily an annoyance for those with sensitive wheels (me), or a habit of scrolling the wheel in the menus to no effect (me). If this is not a bug, at the very least it should be an option.
hmm..this is true. doesn't happen in other win32 apps, context or pulldown menus. Is this behavior required to close dropped HTML <select>'s on wheel scroll, or can the cases be handled separately? to bryner for consideration
