XF 1.2 Change popup hover functionality?

[Ludachris]

The standard XF popup hover (navigation popup menus, for example) stays displayed forever even when you are no longer hovering over it. It only goes away if you click somewhere on the page. Is there a setting to force it to close after 'x' seconds when the mouse leaves the menu?

There's no option that controls that. It would require JS modifications.

Damn, ok thanks.

This is one of the most annoying things ever... I wish they'd alter the default functionality or have an option to change to something else. Any news or updates on this, whether in base XF or add-ons?
