Title:
  Tolerance for diagonal mouse movement

Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If you click an indicator icon, then attempt to move the mouse from
  the icon to the menu, it could momentarily hover a neighboring
  indicator icon if the movement follows a diagonal path.

  For example (see attached image), if the messaging icon is to the left
  of the sound icon, and the user clicks the sound icon, then moves the
  mouse diagonally to reach the volume slider, the mouse will briefly
  pass over the messaging icon.

  Current behavior:

  The sound menu closes and the messaging menu opens (this is very
  frustrating).

  Desired behavior:

  Keep the sound menu open and ignore the messaging menu.

  If you're not convinced that this is important, check out the normal
  application menu: if you open a submenu, then move the mouse
  diagonally, the open menu doesn't change. Contrast with the behavior
  of the classic start menu in old versions of windows (e.g. windows xp)
  where diagonal mouse movement changes the active submenu.
