ComponentLookupException when using ContainerFixture.menuItemWithPath()

I'm running into a problem where ContainerFixture.menuItemWithPath() throws an exception because it finds multiple matching components. E.g., if I try this:

--snip--

window.menuItemWithPath( "File", "Exit").click();

--snip--

then this exception is thrown:

--snip--

org.fest.swing.exception.ComponentLookupException: Found more than one component using matcher org.fest.swing.driver.JMenuItemMatcher[label='File|Exit'].

Found:

javax.swing.JMenuItem[name='parentExitMenuItem', text='Exit', selected=false, enabled=true, visible=true, showing=false]

I'm attaching a toy app and corresponding FEST JUnit test that demonstrates the problem. The initial window is a JFrame with a File > Exit menu item and also a "Launch" JButton in the content pane. When the launch button is pressed, a new JDialog is created as a child of the JFrame. This dialog also has a File > Exit menu item. The test closes the child dialog, and then attempts to click the frame's File > Exit menu item using ContainerFixture.menuItemWithPath(). It looks like it is finding the now-hidden dialog's menu as well, and giving up.
