Would like to support Brian's arguments.

For an everage user is always surprising when quite similar things behaves
differently. Moreover users do not like to learn new things. They like
just to learn thing once. The good example of my dad. He is used to use
kde. When he saw E he was lost around new thing, although he agreed that
E is kewl. He had to learn similar things once again: where is main menu,
where is applications, how he can setup his enviroment, etc.

So, my personal opinion, that Brian is completely right about
standartizing module popup behavior, and that, initialy, this behaviour
should be similar for all modules (from my point of view, mixer should
not have popup on mouse in, just on click, but without grabing mouse
and keyboard input.). Then of course user can set his/her personal
preferences.
