Description
 if one displays a menu in our metalic lightshow, and then switches to another app, the menu stays up and the app tracks mouse movement as the cursor moves over the menu bar and menu items.
This may be a swing bug, but since I don't know for sure who is doing this, I'll start the ball here.

This is reproduceable with the SwingSet example:
- Launch SwingSet
- Click on a menu item to expose it's submenu
- Click on another application window (Terminal, for example) to activate a different window
* The submenu stays in place, and displays rollover effects.

(Note that every windowing environment I've seen pulls the submenu off the screen as soon as you go to another window.)
