I'm not convinced this is actually a real bug. This is how all menu's work (including GTK menus), and you will find that every drop-down menu on the system works in this way. Menu's always grab the keyboard and pointer so that they are able to know if you've navigated outside of the menu, and close the menu automatically when you do so.
