Fixed User Profile: Modify User link does not work without Javascript

I had a look at this the other day. I wasn't sure what was meant by "Modify User" link... I presumed it was the "Moderator Tools" menu in user profiles. With JS disabled, occasionally the menu glitches on hover and is unusable, or, more frequently, a link appears but it is not clickable:

JS Disabled:
upload_2014-2-17_9-32-45.webp

JS Enabled:

upload_2014-2-17_9-33-26.webp

Compare that to the Thread Tools drop down which works with JS disabled.
 
The thread tools dropdown didn't work with out JS for some time actually. I think there was a change sometime in 1.2 involving display: table. That might be workable here.

However, conversely, we've generally held that moderators should be expected to have JS enabled (like admins).

In Windows 8.1 Firefox latest regular release it looks like this with latest noscript enabled for everything:

upload_2014-2-17_13-30-11.webp

In the debugger the elements are displayed like this:

upload_2014-2-17_13-32-36.webp
 
Have you changed the phrase or something? Profile Options isn't something I recognise as being in the core.
 
I think the overflow: hidden isn't necessary anyway, as it was on a float: right element, which triggers float containment itself. (Though the menu may still go off the right edge with JS disabled.)
