JDK-7154449 - [macosx] Orphaned Choice popup window on resize
Description
Mac OS X 10.7.3 macmini4,1
Build b227.
Run any test with java.awt.Choice, preferably embedded in a closable Frame. Click on the Choice to open a popup but do not click in popup itself.

Now close the embedding Frame or just drag it by mouse away, with everything in it. The popup will stay open and alive all by itself, as if it is teared off.
Comments
EVALUATION When a choice popps up, BasicPopupMenuUI.MouseGrabber.grabWindow tries to grab the popup window that lies behind the choice's list. But it can't, because the JComboBox delegate is not in a hierarchy. No grab, no ungrab.
