Sometimes it is preferred to display popup menu when DropDownButton is pressed in any area, and not only in the arrow 
region. This can easily be achieved by using a flag variable in isInArrowArea() method. The best name I could come up 
for this variable was "alwaysInArrowArea". I attached modified DropDownButton to this post.

Hello, thanks for your contribution, could you please make a patch (diff) for us with current version? Thank you very
