Description

I was expecting either system behavior (no scrolling while context menu is visible) or the same as in monaco playground:

2018-08-24 13 28 14

but currently the context menu just stays on top at the fixed position if you try scrolling:

2018-08-24 13 28 29

the UX issue is that you're moving away from the original selection, which is context of that menu.
