These menus are all external to my application..  Also, it could be
any application, not just Qt or KDE based.

After much mucking about, I think my only choice may be to try and
fake it with a quick timer and grabbing mouse positions while a menu
is active.  Hehe, I guess I was optimistic to think I could pull this
off without at least one dirty hack.
