Just an update, I sent it upstream:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=567671

This appears to be a case of "it's not a bug, it's a feature!" It
happens when you navigate menu X and hover over a menu item Y causing
submenu Z to pop up. Then if you move your cursor down menu X and
towards the right a little bit, the delay will occur. This is
intentional; it allows the user to move the mouse directly to a desired
menu entry in Z without having to keep it inside the region of menu item
Y first.

I have proposed reducing the default menu popdown delay to make this
less bothersome in situations where it triggers incorrectly. Not sure if
this will be deemed acceptable or not yet.
