Confinement has been implemented as bug 1590099. But I think we're still
missing this use case -- pointer grabs without confinement required for
menus.
This means the menu surface receives all cursor events (even outside it)
so that the first click outside the menu goes to the menu so it can
close itself.

- Using Xmir, app menus don't always close when you click outside of them.
+ App menus don't always close when you click outside of them.
They only close (in some cases) if you click on the app itself or are
forced to select a menu item.
This is an expected problem, as Mir does not yet implement pointer
grabs, which is what toolkits use to auto-close menus when you click
outside them.
