I'd never use "Immediate" for `mouse-autoselect-window' if I wanted to
use menus.  I wrote all that delayed autoselection stuff because people
had problems with selecting things from menus and consequently getting
some unrelated window selected.  Please try with some (short) delay.

Here the mouse cursor is outside the Emacs frame so I can't reproduce
this.  I suppose you can't move the mouse "around" your Calendar window?

I don't fully understand what you say here.  Where precisely is the
mouse cursor when you start moving it?

They are independent, indeed.
