I might be able to use a camera to get one, but seems quite a waste of bugzilla disk space.

Just left click/hold mouse pointer in the title bar of a terminal and you will see a 4 arrow icon and you can move the terminal around in the desktop. Now right click/hold and you should see a context menu. In mga6 and cauldron, all I get is the same icon/function regardless if I use left or right button on mouse.

When I right click on the title bar and release the mouse button I get the context menu.
Holding the right mouse button I get the icon/function to drag the window.

Isn't it supposed to work this way?

Well, shuckey dern, click/release does provide the context menu.

Going to guess changing Display Manager from SDDM to LIGHTDM has made system hardware event response much better. 

I just now finished running a Xfce live dvd test in a VirtualBox and I was getting intermittent context menu once in 48 click attempts. Click/release works 100% of the time.

I am sorry for wasting everyone's time. Old habits die hard.

Closing bug due to user stupidity. :)
