[Qt-interest] QDockwidget popup menu unexpected show

Hello all,

I have an application that uses some QDockwidgets, a popup menu is shown 
when I right-click on the top of one them and I can hide/show the docked 
widgets. This fine for me.

I also have in the QMainWindow an event handler that manages 
mouseclicked events of the central widget:  mouseClicked(QMouseEvent *) 
signal of the central widget connected to a slot of QMainWindow.
In this slot, when right-click is pressed, I show a contextual menu using:
menuPopupBtRight->exec(QCursor::pos());

menuPopupBtRight is a QMenu* which is composed of several actions. For 
actions that just execute some simple code everything is going ok, for 
others that needs to use a dialog (a custom class or a QMessageBox), 
just at the end of the action QDockWidget popup menu is shown.

it looks like the first right-clicked event is send to parent in some 
cases and not in others.

thx

Chris
