Confirmed this is still an issue; we saw it on 0.14.0 and 0.14.1 RC1

This may be an electron / Muon bug... I bet we can check upstream for patches which may have this fixed

@bsclifton this is the site that our Community contributor experienced this on (macOS, reported this evening, sounds similar to what you all were working through):

Just noting before my brain forgets...
The link above may actually be fixed by the update currently being pushed.

I am going to have the contributor confirm once the push is live, and will report here.

Most likely was a timing discrep between the 0.14.0 release and the hotfix.

@bsclifton
Confirming that the contributor mentioned above has reported that v0.14.1 has resolved their issue.

I think this problem is made worse by the fact that context menus are synchronous on macOS (#5470).
