With more testing I found that the context menu position depends
(perhaps solely) on whether my mouse pointer is on the left side or the
right side of the horizontal half of the rightmost monitor: if you
imagine a vertical line dividing the rightmost monitor's display area
into two equal-sized halves, right-clicking anywhere on the left side of
that line brings up the menu on the correct display, whereas right-
clicking anywhere on the right side brings it up on the wrong display.

(That is why I first made the mistake of thinking links weren't
affected: the ones I tried first just happened to be on the left side.)

Unfortunately I don't have a third display to verify that I'm really
seeing a different manifestation of the same bug as Nathaniel, of one
that depends on the monitor count.

Title:
  context menu appears on wrong monitor when window is on rightmost of 3
  monitors

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a triple-head setup with 3 monitors arranged horizontally.

  When the chromium window is on either the left or middle monitor,
  right-clicking on a tab or normal web page displays a context menu at
  the mouse pointer (i.e. normal context menu behavior).

  When the chromium window is on the right monitor, right clicking on a
  tab or page displays a context menu on the right edge of the middle
  monitor (but at the expected vertical location). This is the bug.

  Interestingly, if the mouse pointer is close enough to the right edge
  of the right monitor when right clicking, the context menu appears in
  the expected place (on the right monitor near the mouse pointer, but
  "pushed in" so the whole menu fits on the screen without overflowing
  off the right edge).
