I've found that this bug affects only windowsless plugins.

FWIW, here is my STR from the bug I duped to this:

STR
1. Make sure your browser window in not maximized
2. Open the link URL (or other windowless Flash video page)
3. Click the video to play
4. While the video is still playing, drag it out to a new window; and make sure
the video is significantly displaced from its old screen position
5. Right-click the video and notice that the context menu is drawn where the
video previously was.

Reproducible on Windows XP also, but not reproducible on GNU/Linux.

It would be nice if bugzilla had an all Windows platform category.

For me this bug actually affects the normal clicking behavior as well. On the url given in the bug description, after detaching the tab the hover effects no longer function correctly. Try to get into fullscreen for example after following the STR in comment 2 up till step 4.

The problem may be related to OOPP because it works fine when disabled.

The link you provided is no longer available, can you please provide another one so I can test this on my end?
Also, is this still reproducible on your end ? If yes, can you please retest this using latest FF release and latest Nightly build (https://nightly.mozilla.org/) and report back the results ? When doing this, please use a new clean Firefox profile, maybe even safe mode, to eliminate custom settings as a possible cause (https://goo.gl/PNe90E).

Thanks.
