I cannot say I understand that in detail, either, but the fact is it does. Maybe it's translation from C-down-mouse-3 to C-mouse-3? > Does it pop down for you if you click [C-down-mouse-3] that displays > the local/global menu? No. When I release the mouse button after clicking C-mouse-3, the menu stays displayed until I select a menu item (or dismiss the menu with the likes of C-g).
