682388 - context sensitive menu regression

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Colin]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:6.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/6.0
Build ID: 20110816220020

Steps to reproduce:

right click to pop up the context sensitive menu.


Actual results:

The context sensitive menu that appears has a severe usability regression. There is plenty of screen real estate available, but not all of the menu items are displayed, forcing the user to have to mive the moise pointer over the (unnecessarily small) 'scroll' widget and press the mouse button again to try to start the  (completely unneccessary scrolling process).
This is a royal PAIN IN THE ASS and a severe restriction when you already have mobility/vision/interaction restrictions.


Expected results:

the users right click should have produced a useable context sensitive menu next to the mouse pointer.
