While trying to come up with a good documentation I've detected a real change in behaviour in connection with the NodeOrientation of the anchor node.
Although this has never been documented, when NodeOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT is set, the context menu was right-aligned for Side=TOP and Side=BOTTOM. 
Since I assume we don't want to change this behaviour I would now document it and adapt my patch accordingly. I've already written a test case like this:
    @Test public void test_position_withOrientation() throws InterruptedException {
        ContextMenu cm = createContextMenu(false);
        anchorBtn.setNodeOrientation(NodeOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT);
        cm.show(anchorBtn, Side.TOP, 0, 0);

        Bounds anchorBounds = anchorBtn.localToScreen(anchorBtn.getLayoutBounds());
        Node cmNode = cm.getScene().getRoot();
        Bounds cmBounds = cm.getScene().getRoot().localToScreen(cmNode.getLayoutBounds());

        assertEquals(anchorBounds.getMaxX(), cmBounds.getMaxX(), 0.0);
        assertEquals(anchorBounds.getMinY(), cmBounds.getMaxY(), 0.0);
        anchorBtn.setNodeOrientation(NodeOrientation.LEFT_TO_RIGHT);
    }
which passes with the old implementation but (currently) fails with the new implementation.
