Strange; this works for me (tested with both gtk and qt apps).

Could you do:
  1) xpra start --no-daemon :10 >server.log 2>&1
  2) xpra attach :10 >client.log 2>&1
  3) DISPLAY=:10 kate  (or whatever)
  4) click on something to pull up a menu
  5) kill everything and send us server.log and client.log?
(Or better yet, file a bug at http://partiwm.org and attach the log
files there?)

Hmm, not sure what exactly you mean here.  The only possible issue I
can think of would be that when using xpra, the relative timing of
events gets distorted a bit, but that will be true for every remote
application tech, and we already prioritize clicks when sending stuff
over the network...

This I can reproduce (very strange!).  Filed at
   http://partiwm.org/ticket/23

Thanks for the reports!
