Description Linus Kardell 2023-01-21 22:33:16 UTC 
SUMMARY
When you open a context menu in Wayland and have focus-follows-mouse enabled, the menu closes when hovering a different application. This is a regression compared to X11, where the context menu didn't close until you clicked. Although Plasma panels suffer this same issue on X11, where context menus don't, see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336285.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run on Wayland
2. Enable focus-follows-mouse
3. Right click in a window to open a context menu
4. Hover a different application (I tried it between Firefox and Kate, in both directions, both native Wayland and XWayland).

OBSERVED RESULT
Context menu closes

EXPECTED RESULT
Context menu should not close until you click somewhere outside it
