mouseMoved and first responder madness

I've got a NSDocument based app with a scrolling view for which I need
mouseMoved events.

For the most part, all is well if I add these to the view class:

- (BOOL)acceptsFirstResponder
{
    return TRUE;
}

- (BOOL)becomeFirstResponder
{
    [[self window] setAcceptsMouseMovedEvents: TRUE];
    return TRUE;
}

- (BOOL)resignFirstResponder
{
    [[self window] setAcceptsMouseMovedEvents: FALSE];
    return TRUE;
}

But there's a problem. If I click on the menu bar - even if I don't select a
menu item - my view does not get first responder status again (and thus, no
mouse moved events) until I click on the window or in the view itself.

What am I doing wrong? What becomes the first responder after a menu
selection?
