This is because the search bar loses focus when the context menu appears, so it hides and destroys the info window and result list.

Selecting any option from the context menu (or just dismissing it with Escape / a click somewhere else) causes the context menu to trigger some operation on the info window which has already been destroyed.

The info window and result list should not be destroyed immediately when closed (save in a global variable call the destructor when creating a new window, instead of calling it immediately when the focus is lost)
The info window and result list should stay open/visible when the context menu appears (use the global Qt signal to get notifications of focus changes application-wide while the drop-down menu is open, and detect if the focus lands outside of our responsibility or not)
