Context menu stealing mouse events from widget config window

SUMMARY
When configuring a widget or the desktop wallpaper and opening a context menu on the desktop or any widget, mouse events on the config window are transmitted to the context menu relative to its position on the screen, i.e. a context menu initiated at the upper left corner of the screen receives mouse events on the upper left part of the widget config window regardless of the window's position on the screen.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click a widget > config
2. Right click desktop, preferably in the upper left part
3. Move your mouse over the widget configuration window

OBSERVED RESULT
The context menu receives hover and click events while the window does not.

EXPECTED RESULT
The window to get hover events not the context menu
