The fix looks good, although I left one question inline (also there is an
unused import).
The test looks good. I verified that it fails without your fix and passes with
your fix.

Unused import.

This will fail to remove a weak reference to a listener that has been
collected. It is a `WeakHashMap`, so the `WeakReference` to the listener will
be reclaimed as soon as the `menuItem` is no longer reachable, but if you used
the same logic as you did for the scene listener (e.g., on lines 254-261), it
would be removed sooner. I don't know whether it matters in this case.
