Description
Mouse release not being delivered to Swing component in 7u45

The application has a toolbar button that activates a popup to allow users to 
create tables. 

The popup can be expanded by right clicking and dragging over the
edge of the popup to create bigger tables. In Java SE 6 and previous, right
clicking the button and immediately dragging over the component and releasing
was generating the expected event to generate the proper table dimensions.
But in JDK 7, the event isn't being delivered.

No, it is not regression.

Is it a regression?

This problem was fixed by JDK-7171045 in JDK8. However, the fix was partly backported to JDK7. It is necessary to backport full changeset from JDK8 to JDK7.

The problem is reproducible only on JDK7. JDK8 does not have this issue.
