I can confirm this happens on 4.0 and not on 3.6. I didn't confirm that it works on 4.0 on other platforms. Also note that the menuitems from the main menubar (like in View > Page Style) work correctly.

To try the testcase on 4.0, you need to set the preference "dom.allow_XUL_XBL_for_file" to true.

Forgot to mention the cause: the menuitem element has a child box that has its background-image property set to the check icon. For some reason the width of this box is set to 0 by default, except for the main menuitems as mentioned in comment #2. Setting the width to some other value with CSS fixes the problem.

I would say it's a dupe of bug 643184. Roc or Markus, do you agree with?

Yes although comment #3 has more data than that bug.

We have an ongoing discussion re blocking on bug 643184. So I have blockquoted Jorges comment on bug 643184 and we can mark it as dupe. Thanks Roc.
