Possible patch

A workaround is to set Wine to emulate a virtual desktop. The bug appears to be
due to a decision made way back in 2004 to not send SC_KEYMENU on managed
windows:

Perhaps the SC_KEYMENU prohibition is no longer necessary--when I remove it
from winex11, the Notepad++ bug is fixed and I haven't noticed any problems in
other applications. Is the fix as simple as that?
