Agreed that it is a feature, but there is a bug in the feature, that causes
emacs to segfault if you hit the left-arrow key right after clicking to the
right of the menus in the menubar.  If one hits the right-arrow, the File
menu is selected, and thereafter left/right wrap around from File to Help
(and back), but if the first key after the mouse-click is the left arrow,
emacs will crash and burn.  This is with M-x emacs-version of:
GNU Emacs 21.2.50.5 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 
2002-04-23 on meat
