pheki has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents: == New `contextmenu` event definition missing bypass == Hi! Before 2017 the WHATWG spec used to specify that User Agents could bypass the `contextmenu` event to ensure that the user can always access the default context menu, see https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/6433 Since then the `contextmenu` event was defined in w3c/uievents#316, but it's now missing the possibility of bypass. This is also implemented in Gecko. It can be verified by opening [#316's test page](https://codepen.io/mustaqahmed/full/Pojrdeo) and holding shift while right clicking in Firefox.
