Description Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2012-03-13 17:11:52 EDT 
Need new API to tell custom controls whether a menu detect event came from the mouse or the keyboard. If the menu detect came from the keyboard (for example, the user typed shift+F10) then the custom control should set the context menu's location based on the current selection or selected item.
This is part of the fix for bug 110005.
