"Single-menus" (like the menu-selectors in "menu-bars")
have a mouse-behaviour that differs from other objects.
Specially in case of a menu bar that is often quite
handy, and might sometimes be in case of "single-menu".
If such a component is placed in the same dialog as an
editbox (in case of a single-menu this is a quite
likely situtaion), then the single-menu-selector will
steal the the focus from the edit-box if the mose is
moved over the menu-selector. This happens instantly,
just a very quick move ove with the mose makes it
happen, and this makes it quite confusing for the user.
There would be nice to have an option to set the mouse
behavior to be the same as for buttons for single-menus
(maybe also for menu-bars). Since the menu-behaviour of
single-menus are not extreamly valuable, it may be an
acceptable solution to make global option to all
single-menus in the application.
