It's traditional in the Linux environment for context menus to take a pointer grab, so that other applications do not receive rogue clicks when clicking to dismiss the context menu.

(Not really essential, it's just a tiny behavior thing I noticed while trying out the client. Not sure how to mark this as a low-priority enhancement)

Actually, not so low-priority.
Here sometimes if I open a menu and switch to another application, the menu will still be drawn over the new application.
So, I think that using a pointer grab could fix that by closing the menu without needing to go back and reopen it.
