Exploring this on my (installed main) Ubuntu 19.10 system,

I have an open terminal, if I right-click on the terminal making it
active, then move to background well away from the terminal and right-
click the background, the menu doesn't open where I have my mouse-
pointer, but it appears near the cursor position in the gnome-terminal.

If I click on this chromium-browser window, so it's active, the cursor
is this being-typed window, then move the pointer to my other screen and
right-click the menu - I'd expect the menu to open near my pointer - but
it opens near the cursor on chromium.

I have music playing using `audacious`; if I click on that window, then
move the mouse-pointer to background on either display and right-click
background - the menu appears where I expect it; right near by mouse-
pointer.

Hexchat acts just like terminal/chromium - ie. it doesn't matter where
my mouse-cursor is when I right-click the background - it always appears
in area where I enter text into my IRC window.
