The frustrating part is there seems to be no communication. Who do I call for a status on this bug? When can we expect a fix?

Can we all agree that we fully understand the issue now? I don't think statements like "apparently those that see it, see it regularly, but the rest doesnt see it at all" are true. I bet money that anyone who right clicks on links by clicking and releasing expecting to see a menu will encounter this bug. And maybe we are all wrong and this is not a bug, since if you hold down the right click button then navigate to your menu item and then release it works perfectly. I still wonder why on earth the menu is painted when we right click verses when we release. I know of no other software that works this way. Actually the only time click and hold is used is for drag and drop. And I have never heard of click and hold for the right mouse button. Who is trying to invent new mouse behavior?

Maybe this some desperate attempt to "not be like windows" so these guys have started throwing in silly changes to mouse behavior like this just to torment us.
