Doing it this way allows people to open multiple tabs without re-opening the menu (or, better yet, a sub-menu).  Further, simply clicking outside the menu closes it (which you would need to do to get anything done anyway).  So there is not much cost to doing it this way for people who only want to open one tab but there is a large benefit for people who want to open multiple tabs.
