Hi again,
For the record of anyone else running into this, I've found a somewhat
useful workaround:
Just before calling "openContextMenu()" I now call "closeContextMenu()"
- this seems to restore sanity. When things work as expected it has no
effect at all (as expected), but when the user has pressed Back on a 2.0
device (read "Milestone") previously this will ensure
onContextMenuClosed() is called - later than expected, but better than
nothing and at least the state is sane before the new menu occurs.
Further advice appreciated. Maybe my case is somewhat on the edge since
the View in question is a single fullscreen one (the map), but even so
there should be symmetry IMHO - if onContextItemSelected() works, then
so should onContextMenuClosed(), right?
