Apparently, the problem still persists on some sites, like creating new
folders on Google Drive. So I debugged the issue and finally found that
this problem is created by the "Enable Right Click and Copy" plugin.
That plugin seems anyway to be out of date so I removed it. Should get
used to checking plugins before reporting a problem. Thx

Title:
  Cannot select from web-context menus with mouse click, only with
  keyboard

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On many web-pages that have drop-down menus, I cannot select from them
  by mouse. For example, I cannot change the language in google
  translate: Goto https://translate.google.com/, select the triangle
  next to the default languages, hover over any language and left click
  to select it. The drop-down menu disappears, but the language is not
  changed. The language is properly selected, when I use the cursor and
  enter keys.
