+Summary: TextBox.ContextMenu is not null
+
+Description of Problem:
+The ContextMenu on a new TextBox is not null.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+Compile and run the following program.
+using System.Windows.Forms;
+class TestForm : Form {
+    static void Main() {
+        Application.Run(new TestForm());
+    }
+    public TestForm() {
+        TextBox TextBox = new TextBox();
+        MessageBox.Show((TextBox.ContextMenu == null).ToString());
+    }
+}
+Actual Results:
+False
+
+Expected Results:
+True
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always.
+
+Additional Information:
+While the current Mono implementation would make sense, Microsoft Windows 
+Forms is just a wrapper. The initial context menu for a text box is native 
+and is not wrapped as an initial value for the ContextMenu property. 
+Extending the context menu is generally done either through platform 
+invoke or by replacing it completely. The current Mono implementation may 
+break applications that use the second method.
+This is caused by the line
+ContextMenu = menu;
+in the TextBox.TextBox().
+I suggest not assigning the value of "menu" to the ContextMenu, but 
+displaying it when the user triggers the context menu if the ContextMenu 
+property returns null.
