More info:
It has nothing to do with the object menu, same thing happens if menu
bar is turned off and you rightclick.
It has nothing to do with actually making a menu, forcing
popup_object_menu to return at once doesn't remove it.
If the object is deselected and then reselected, it doesn't happen.
Once the object has been moved or its handles have been dragged, it can
happens again, almost like the problem is residue from getting motion
events.
