Hi Rich,
General comment: Is this a request for edits? If so, can someone
provide the correct wording?
Specific comments:

> item in the menu bar. The current test suite fires a
> EVENT_SYSTEM_MENUPOPUPSTART when you open the sub menu as it is a

The scenario description for Row 1 is, "Open menu in menu bar". To me,
that is what you get when you, for example, click on the "File" menuitem
in the menu bar, and its accompanying menu pops up. Or when you use
Alt+F on the keyboard. Is that what the test case is simulating?
Aside: for Windows menus, when you open a menu from the menu bar either
by click or keystroke, the first menu item is highlighted (= focused?).
That's possibly why the scenario in row 1 includes " Focus goes to
menuitem ...", but I'm not sure which menuitem it's talking about. It
could be the menu item in the menu bar, or it could be the menu item in
the popped open menu.
> 2. Row 3: When a popup menu is made visible (we have this in the tests

Okay. What happens when the popup menu is made visible AND focus *is*
placed on one of its menuitems? Isn't that a situation that needs
coverage? Perhaps it is via a combination of rows 3 and 2. If so,
"then a focus event on a menuitem" text in row 3 is redundant.
> 3. Row 5: If you simply show and hide a popup menu I am not seeing a
> EVENT_SYSTEM_MENUEND
> 4. Row 6: I am not seeing a EVENT_SYSTEM_MENUEND in Firefox for a
> popup menu leaving
These strike me as bugs in FF, since it appears that FF is firing some
kind of menu "start" event. Doesn't it need to clear that with a
corresponding menu end event(s)? Or is it sufficient to simply clear
the "menu mode"? Alex?
Thanks.
