It is hard to reproduce the bug, it could be also something related to
EXWM, I cannot reproduce it, I was myself surprised as I have not seen
crushes for years.

Then I got several other crushes of X session all together, but not
related to menu.

I cannot reproduce it now.

I am using Lucid toolkit, and when I pressed F10, the menu list opened
in the bottom left corner, but now I cannot bring it to open it in
bottom left corner, as that corner could be related to the crush.
