Actually, this was caused by thing-at-mouse that uses mouse-set-point
in bug#50256 (a detailed description added in bug#50256).

But regarding this bug#9923, and the question about avoiding :filter
evaluation for context menus - since the context menu is bound to 'ignore':

  `(menu-item ,(purecopy "Context Menu") ignore
              :filter (lambda (_) (context-menu-map)))

does it make sense to ignore 'ignore' like in this patch?
