If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (5.0.5 or 5.1.2 https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior

2. Test your bug 

3. Leave a comment with your results.

I'm the dupe bug author. Some more points:

* There _may_ be cases when even a focused comment gets the wrong context menu. I don't have reproduction instructions, but when looking at the context menu choice code, please be on the lookout for something like that.

* Hovering over a comment changes its frame and the dashed line to it from the document, hinting that it has become focused, or at least that it's semi-focused, close-to-focused etc. That makes the context-menu choice even more puzzling, because the user is basically certain they're seeing a context menu for the comment, and may well have lost sight of where the cursor is.

A right click still shows the context menu for the text body, with:
