Bug Description

To reproduce use lxpanel in utopic and then have a usb mouse and a touchpad both set on and set as left handed in lxinput. Then with the usb mouse use the primary click on the menu then choose a category and a program and press the secondary mouse button which should be left button on touchpad on the program to bring up a context menu. Then move the cursor off the context menu and click back on the panel. The menu should now be frozen and your keybindings should not work but you should still be able to switch to a tty. Lxpanel versioin installed 0.6.2-0ubuntu2 canidate 0.6.2-0ubuntu2 Relase is utopic amd64.
I expected to still be able to use the interface and have it not freeze. Instead the interface froze.

Wierd thing happened in that reproting a bug to apport removed the freeze as a workaround. I don't really know how to explain it as I do not know the internals of apport that well.
