Except I can minimize the message list to, say, 2 entries and display  
an HTML message that is 2000 lines long, and scroll all the way to the  
bottom, and right-clicking still works fine on the message list.

In other words: The DOM ID previewPane DIV does extend to the top of  
the browser (and above) when scrolling to the bottom of a longer HTML  
message.  But this is irrelevant because the message rows are  
contained in the 'msglist' DIV, which is a floating element so even if  
the previewPane DIV occupies the same space, it will be displayed  
UNDER the float - not over.

You are going to need to get deeper into the browser fundamentals to  
determine why the right-click DOM event is being triggered/handled by  
this DIV instead of the msglist row.
