I have situation in which I have asynchronous network events (pumped
to the main thread via performSelectorOnMainThread:) that result in
the contents of a popup button's menu changing.

If the user has the menu open (user either single-clicked or is
click-holding the control) items will update in the menu however the
sizing of the menu wont change which results in the appearance of a
partially populated menu and/or other related visual inconsistencies.

Any suggestions / opinions on the "right way" to either close an open
NSPopUpButton or otherwise get it to fully display itself?

I could defer the menu update until the menu is closed but I would
prefer to inform the user as soon as possible since a selection they
are about to make may not exist any more.
