I think that this is an important patch we should discuss on this
mailing list. The patch clearly is wrong, as it is only trying to
address the result of a problem, but not the problem itself. What
happens is that after opening a submenu the interaction of the mouse
has
an offset, when the window manager repositions the submenu. I think
that
this is caused by the code not accepting any repositioning events for
the submenu. I would expect that the backend tries to tell gui where
the
submenu window did get positioned, but as we are in a tracking loop we
ignore these events.
It seems that events related to moving the window should happen in
every run-loop mode, rather than requiring the juggling provided here.
I mentioned at the hackathon that I think there is a mistake in the
x11 code (which I keep meaning to look at again but haven't had a
chance to yet) where it is confusing the window's internal and
external sizes (with and without the border; the X11 equivalent of the
frame and bounds) in a couple of places. Possibly this is related?
