While it would make sense to have the motion events relative to the
surface in these cases, I think that it would still be better if the
menu elements were not selected when the pointer is outside of the
menu widget. Without this patch, but with the relative coordinate fix
in place, that would not be the behavior, right? The commit message
should be different though, in that case.
