When right-clicking on field header in bookmark window, a very small "pop-up
menu" will be shown near the mouse cursor.  Is that a "feature" or what?


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1) Open Bookmark Window
2) Right click on a field header (e.g. Name, Location, etc.)


Actual Results:  A very small "pop-up menu" is shown.

Expected Results:  Should there be any thing?  New features pending to be
implemented upon that pop-up menu?

I see this on linux build 2001-02-21-21.  right-click sorts on that header and
pops up a tiny little context menu.

I think the problem is that column headers of trees (bookmark sidebar, 
bookmarks, history sidebar, mail thread pane, etc.) are sending their right-
click events through to their contents.  If any context menu is shown when 
right-clicking column headers, it should be something like the column picker 
menu.

Right-clicking a column headers should also not re-sort the tree, since right-
clicks by themselves are supposed to not do anything.

-> Trees, changing summary from "Tiny pop-up menu appears when right-clicking 
on field header in bookmark window" to "wrong context menu appears for column 
headers".

The context attribute should be on the treechildren and not on the tree.
