Public bug reported:
Hi there
When achiving large numbers of messages from my Inbox, Thunderbird
leaves the context menu on-screen as an artifact. It's very annoying
because thunderbird won't respond, but the context menu still stays in
front of other windows when I switch to another program, eg LibreOffice
as shown in the attached screenshot.
Perhaps this is a problem with Unity (I am using Unity 2D here), but
more likely I think it is a problem with Mozilla running this archive
operation in an inefficient 'foreground' way, when really it should be a
nicely backgrounded task (eg using the Activity Manager).
Cheers
JP
