I can reproduce on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:2.2a1pre) Gecko/20110404 Firefox/4.2a1pre ID:20110404030429 but I personally would consider this bug a feature. I'll be using extensively for the time being and hope they don't fix it, is a big usability improvement ad you don't have to mouse on the menus but you still see where you're going on the "URL bubble" =)

with more research it seems all the browsers behave the same way. i think it would be really useful if there was some way of knowing that the link is not visible or something along those lines. so i guess this isn't a bug but a feature request.
