Public bug reported:

I have two (hopefully related) problems with popup-menus for
applications on an external monitor.  For background I have two
displays, the first a builtin LCD panel, the second and HDMI connected
LCD monitor.  The external monitor is stacked "above" the internal LCD
panel, the internal LCD panel is the "primary" display from a where the
dash et al are placed.

The first issue occurs with gnome-terminal.  When using right-click on
an element in the window such as a link, a menu is shown to allow
OpenURL et al.  This menu will not appear when the link it too close to
the bottom of the upper display (the external one); the cursor changes
to the arrow menu item selector cursor but not menu is rendered.  This
occurs regardless of whether the window is maximised and it related to
proximity to the boundary of the display.  It behaves correctly at the
bottom boundary of the lower display.  Two screenshots attached showing
it working/not-working.

The second issue occurs in firefox.  When it is rendered on the upper
displays its internal menus are displayed at the top of the lower
display rather than on the upper display rooted at the menu item itself.
This also does not occur on the lower display.  Screenshot attached.

** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
