[Bug 236222] [NEW] Context menu drawn behind (Live) Bookmarks menus

[greyor]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Using Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron"
Package version 3.0~rc1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1

When right-clicking on a bookmark in the Bookmarks menu, as well as Live
Bookmarks, the context menu is more often than not drawn behind the
Bookmarks menu.

The context menu should be drawn in front of a menu as it normally does.

Since the context menu often extends to the right, one stopgap solution
is to click on the extreme right of the bookmark. In some cases,
however, a Live Bookmark or bookmark submenu will open to the left, and
then this is not a viable solution. Regardless, it is a major annoyance
and should be fixed, as I am always right-clicking on these links in
order to open in new tabs.

I have attached a screenshot of the bug in action. I don't know who else has had this problem, but please speak up if so.
I have found this to be a problem since 3.0b5, and I really hope that it is fixed in 3.0 final.
