could you try to flip the dom.event.contextmenu.enabled pref and see if
that improves something for you?

For if cursor stands still over the link during 2 or 3 seconds and the the right mouse button is pressed without [X, Y] movement, the correct pop-up menu is shown (at least most of the times). So it seems that when the click event is raised, the current, actual position of the cursor is not correctly captured. Instead, some other [X, Y] coordinates are passed as argument, that maybe quite far from the place qhere the arrow icon is on screen. for instance, sometimes I get mi del.icio.us plugin summoned, even when it is located on the top bar of the mozilla firefox 3 browser window, hundreds of pixels away from the link I am clicking. So I don't think the [X, Y] argument is really related to where the position of the cursor was some fraction of a second ago, but instead, the the algorithm that computes and hands over the coordinates is wrong.
