Steps to reproduce:

This bug applies to Thunderbird also. Menus are in Hebrew.

1. In Firefox, click on folder in the bookmarks toolbar to show the
bookmarks in it, click again to close the folder tree, then click the
folder again and hoover the bookmarks .

2. In Thunderbird, click an item in the menu bar, click again to close
the menu item, then click the menu item again and hoover the items.


Actual results:

In Firefox, the bookmarks in the folder flicker. In Thunderbird, the
menu items flicker. See videos at:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/2065382


Expected results:

No flickering should happen in both apps.

I can repro something similar on KWin (flickering / mispositioned menus)
with the RTL locale if the menus are large and we use the move-to-rect
movement. I think we get the anchor gravity wrong for RTL, but not sure
if that'd be enough to fix ^
