Context menus context menus open on the mouse-up event.
Not opening on mouse-down is inconsistent with many other Mozilla and non-
Mozilla menus and similar GUI elements:
- Mozilla menu-bar menus
- Mozilla pull-down boxes (e.g., the location box)
- MS Windows context and menu-bar menus
- Netscape 4.x on Windows and X11 (I think; I can't confirm that right now)
Also note that requiring a mouse-up event makes using menus slows and
less efficient for users.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Point to something that has a context menu, for example non-active part
of a web page.
2. Press and hold the right mouse button
3. Release the right mouse button
Actual Results:
Context menu appeared after releasing button.
Expected Results:
Displayed context menu on button-down event.

Verified dupe. Note that saying that "MS Windows context... menus" open on
mouse-down is incorrect.

Ack! Why does the search on the bug-report report page never find
the bug report I'm about to duplicate?
