menu when loading

Package: totem
Version: 0.99.9-5
Severity: minor
If you open a file in Totem, close Totem and then start it again, Totem
will try to load the file opened before.
If the file vanishes in between, you get bug 255320, already forwarded
to Gnome, thanks.
However, if you click on the "Movie" menu while Totem opens the second
time, and the list of previous file names is wide (i.e. has one or more
long file names in the list), then the modal error message dialogue box
that pops up can be hidden by the "Movie" menu.
If you didn't know the dialogue box was there behind the menu, you would
only see that Totem had stopped responding to your mouse clicks. To get
out of this, you have to know it is there so you press RETURN or ENTER.
This is obviously a corner case which won't affect many people. It also
is probably a GTK bug so I'm sorry to report it against Totem (which I'm
only doing as it's the only test case I could find).
This was found when playing around for bug 255320, so will be
hidden when that is fixed. But hidden != fixed :)
