Done.

Yes. For example,
(with-timeout (3 'default)
(x-popup-menu t '("Title" ("foo" "nonselectable"))))
Actually, y-or-n-p-with-timeout is implemented using with-timeout.

[Message part 3 (message/rfc822, inline)]
Currently, xdialog_show in xmenu.c calls
free_menubar_widget_value_tree after calling create_and_show_dialog:
/* Actually create and show the dialog. */
create_and_show_dialog (f, first_wv);
/* Free the widget_value objects we used to specify the contents. */
free_menubar_widget_value_tree (first_wv);
But create_and_show_dialog may longjmp in the following case:
(let (last-nonmenu-event)
(y-or-n-p-with-timeout "test" 3 'default))
;; wait 3 seconds.
In this case, free_menubar_widget_value_tree is not called and the
memory allocated for `first_wv' is leaked.
The patch below uses record_unwind_protect as usual for avoiding this
memory leak. I think xmenu_show has the same problem. I'm not sure
about the W32 case.
