[Bug 1614046] [NEW] right click menu does not disappear on click elsewhere nor update on right click elsewhere

[Tgkprog]

Public bug reported:

If you right click on a part of a page, say white space, get a context
sensitive pop-up menu appears. now if i click on white space or click on
a link, the popup does not disappear.

Even i right click on another element (say first right click was on
white space and second right click on a link on same page) the popup
does not change per context.

Need to either choose a safe operation like select or copy link or hover
mouse over the popup and press esc. Can we have the old behavior back?
Earlier could just click on white space to make the pop up hide.

Also could right click on another element to make the context and the
popup change.

On ubuntu 16.04 LTS with FF 48.0 but i noticed this on 47 too. was
hoping will be fixed by 48. searched the bugs could not find a
duplicate.
