Theoretically you don't really need to redefine anything, this is enough:
CopyMenuStyle * WindowList
MenuStyle WindowList SelectOnRelease
Or maybe just:
MenuStyle * SelectOnRelease
But I can confirm that the second line (omitting a release key) does not
work as described in the man page. This needs to be fixed. The current
workaround is to specify a dummy key that exists, like "F12".

You may specify no SelectOnRelease argument to disable this feature, like:
WindowList SelectOnRelease
