Bug Description

Right clicking on items that display a context menu and then selecting an option from a submenu don't sense the "on_click" (don't work). This only happens with the Human theme enabled and works correctly with Glossy or Mist, etc.. themes enabled.

To reproduce. using the mouse(you might need to do this more than once to see the bug):
1. Right click on a text file in Nautlus
2. Select the "open with" submenu
3. Select a text editor.
4. Nothing happens. Expected behavior, text editor should open editing the file.

Another way to reproduce:
1. Start Evolution
2. Compose a new mail
3. Mispell a word.
4. Right click on the word, select the English(American) or your languages submenu.
5. Select the correct spelling of the word.
6. The words spelling isn't changed. Expected behavior, the words spelling is changed to the selected text.

Also, this doesn't happen in Firefox, im' assuming because it widgets aren't quite native.

To clarify, when trying to reproduce, if the mouse is right clicked then the right click button is released, then the submenu is selected with a left click, the bug is produced. However, if you right click holding down the right button until you select the submenu item, then release the right button, the menu item works as expected.

I am seeing this to on up to date gutsy. Human and Outdoors themes don't work, but Glossy does. I used evolution to trigger the bug (eg, right click on an email, then unclick, click 'Create rule from message', select one of the items-- doesn't work).
