Reposting my comment from the dup'ed bug 992423:

I suspect this is because the mouseup event won't be forwarded to the child process if it didn't happen above the browser element (because then the browser element won't be the target for the event).

I imagine we will need to do a setCapture here, and maybe at all cases of mouse events to a remote browser.
