Usually it is possible to make a menu go away (popdown)
by clicking someplace else, such as a "dead" spot in the
window, on the titlebar, on the desktop...

Swing-0.7 menus only pop down when the user clicks
in the java window itself.  Clicking on the titlebar
of the window, etc... don't pop the menus down.

This is apparent in the swingset demo in swing-0.7.

EVALUATION This is a known problem which has to be fixed by additional functionality at the native level in AWT.
