ASLO, if you have problem catching the onmouse out (such as when the
onmouseover of another menu overrides it) you can have your widget add an
event listener to the document itself, which can simply hide the menu..
I use this method to hid my menu's, hide my tooltips, AND to capture
missfired dragstart events for my toolbar.
