This is because clicking [Button1 down up] does not temporarily "pin" the
clicked sub-menu.  For example in gnome-desktop-2.32.0-2.fc14, clicking
Applications brings up a sub-menu, but clicking the Accessories item does not
pin the Accessories sub-menu until the next click (whether the next click
is within that sub-menu or occurs somewhere else.)  Instead, clicking 
Accessories
then moving the pointer down to Games brings up the Games sub-menu.  This
user-interface mistake (clicking on a choice should pin that choice until
another click) is the cause of much mis-selection.  The current behavior
does not match the expectations of users.
