[Laszlo-dev] Re: [Internal-Dev] Fwd: [JIRA] Created: (LPP-975) context menu stops working when modal dialog is displayed

It looks like the onselected() of item2 fires in the context of the enclosing
view's parent - not too intuitive, imho.  

I'd think that item2selected would be something like
parent.parent.item2selected, which is ugly but similar to parent.parent.blah
shenanigans within <view>s.
