I've set the start menu to open on hovering the icon, and when I hover and start menu opens, and I change my mind or someone texts me and click on an other window, start menu remains there. When I click to open startmeu, it's good.

Also another bug i noticed just now (it was working for me before, i just did a clean install on my pc (win 8.1):
- when i hover on the start button, start menu opens and it sends my current window (browser for example) to the back, behind other opened windows.

In Windows the allowed way for a program to get focus is with a mouse click or a key press. It does not allow arbitrary programs to steal focus without being clicked and tries very hard to prevent it. I am also trying hard to steal the focus when you just hover, but it is not 100% reliable and as you've seen it has side effects.

But I have always used it with hover in Windows 8.0 and the side effect that throws the current window to the background was never an issue. Also with win 8.1 with an older version. I'll try older versions next :) I think with 4.0, the current window was not sent to back.
