QA-Test on another box - (following is copy/pasted from comment -
---
dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 
5000/6000/7350/8350)
adjust displays to match my setup, could not re-create 
http://launchpad.net/bugs/1844601 but was unable using the setup that matches 
my display.  I then adjust my portrait-right titled display so it was below 
other display, then above - and could not re-create the bug ...
..
i walked to this room to report findings (this my primary desktop is in another 
room), when I got back to d780 machine had locked display, on resume 
http://launchpad.net/bugs/1844601 was an issue on clicking background.   I was 
doing the exact same things I did before - but now the menu was appearing 
elsewhere on same display or more commonly elsewhere on the wrong display!!!   
Same predictable type pattern as it did on other box...

Title:
  right clicking on background - menu appears often well away from
  pointer

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In the attached picture - My mouse-pointer was on my 'top' display
  above positioned above 'videos' window (which has Little.Sisters MP3
  on it), but menu appears on bottom display below terminal.

  
  -- Expected behavior
  I can click the background on my screens, and I expect the menu to appear 
very close to where my pointer is

  -- Actual behavior
  As I write this, if I move the mouse-pointer to the right of this firefox 
window & right-click background, the menu appears to nearer the left of this 
firefox window?  If I move pointer to left of this firefox window, it appears 
in the same position as it did when to the right; in neither occasion is it 
near my pointer & thus is not readily visible as the menu color is very similar 
to the firefox background that sort of hides it. 

  It maybe because I've adjusted my displays since I started this QA-
  test to match my setup, but in this lab-like setup my displays are
  vertically placed (one above the other)
