Public bug reported:

If you right click on a launcher icon while a workspace transition is in
progress, the menu will be stuck open, and unresponsive.

Reproduce :

 * Open an application.
 * Move your workspace viewpoint to another workspace
 * The following steps should be done rapidly, immediately after one another
   * Left click on the application icon in the launcher
   * While the workspace is still scrolling, right click on the application icon

This causes the right click menu to open
The menu will be unresponsive to the pointer - mouseover will not highlight 
menu items. etc

 * Now left-click in the context menu ; this should do nothing 
    * The click will actually pass through to the application beneath it, if 
there is one

The following things will clear the stuck menu :

 * Switching desktops to the left (but not to the right)
 * Opening a right-click menu for another launcher item.

Keyboard impulses appear to continue to work. ctrl-alt-Up and Down
keystrokes will now move the menu highlight around ; this is presumably
why switching desktop to the left (ctrl-alt-Left) closes the menu.

Oneiric with latest updates at time of writing.
