This fixes the problem. It was caused by the fact that DOM-blur-events bubble in FF2, but not in other browser. EventHanlder.js has a listener on window.onblur, which is therefore executed on ALL blur-events, closing all menus. This patch modifies EventHandler.js to check the originalTarget of the event.

In which cases window (the DOM-object) itself fires a "blur"-event seems somewhat inconsistent between the different browsers. With this fix, some browsers might not always close a menu when another application of the OS is focused. (This also happend without the patch, only now in more cases than before.) 

Rebuild of qx.js is needed!
