Description
When stopping multiple instances in a row the open | close state of the instance context menu gets reset when a request completes and the instance status updates. This occurs with both stop and start, but stop is a little easier to see due to the long request times for starting.
To reproduce:
- Start two instances
- Open the context menu and click stop
- Before the request completes, open the context menu for the second instance
- When the request completes, the second instance's context menu will close without user interaction
(slow down the video to see it easier)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with two instances, opening the second context menu while the first stop request is pending. Trace the instance status update and context-menu state handling, then verify that the second menu remains open after the request completes for both start and stop actions.
