Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

When traversing down a Panel menu, the mouse selects the item under the
mouse. When traversing up the menu, there is a sort of dead area in
which the item under the mouse is NOT selected. For launchers, this is
merely a cosmetic error, of one pixel: for folders on the menu, the gap
has an additional pixel if the mouse is moved perfectly vertical: if the
mouse is quickly clicked on that second, higher, pixel, the menu will
disappear! If the mouse remains on the second pixel for a few moments
without clicking, or if it is moved horizontally, the selection seems to
catch up to the mouse, and there is no problem if you then click.

I found this error in regular use of the menus, however, so it's
certainly not arcane! It was rather disconcerting to have my menus close
on me for no apparent reason!

I cannot seem to take screenshots that contain the mouse, so I've not
provided one.
