Can you describe what you are trying to do exactly? Reading through the posts was more confusing than anything.

Clique uses the focus attribute which is called by the secure code to set focus. The menu function calls SetFocus which when it gets tainted (and it gets tainted easily) doesn't work. They're two different systems. No UF addon can get around the set focus bug, without reimplementing the entire dropdown system in secure code, and nobody is insane enough to do that.

The pastey nightcracker linked was broken with 3.2 (3.1?), it was technically a loophole that caused it to work in the first place.
