[Bug 777014] Re: Right-click menu on hyperlink disappears on mouseover

The problem is not Unity related. I'm having this issue since Firefox 3
(and that was the time Gnome was default window manager in Ubuntu).

Now I'm curious why this problem still exists in Ubuntu 11.10 - Firefox
is now 7! Maybe it is not a bug in Firefox but in GTK?
