Bug Description

When you right-click on a "Favourite" in the dock, it shows a small menu relating to that app. For example, right-click on Nautilus to show the options "All Windows", "New Window", and the various Nautilus shortcuts.

However, when the menu is long (I have many Nautilus shortcuts, so this happens with me), the top of the menu, which is the most important bit (for me, anyway, as I want "New Window") disappears above the screen.

The attached screenshot shows the very top-left of my monitor after I've right-clicked on the Nautilus shortcut. As you can see, the top part of the menu has disappeared off the top.

Unfortunately, this menu cannot be scrolled; there's no scrollbar, and the mouse wheel does nothing.

The menu needs to be scrollable.
