Re: [w3c/uievents] Introduce contextmenuclose or similar event. (#309)

Thanks for the ping. For the popup API, there are [two events proposed](https://open-ui.org/components/popup.research.explainer#events), `show` and `hide`. The `hide` event is fired whenever the popup is hidden for any reason. It is not cancelable.

For this issue, I think you'd want a new/fresh event like `contextmenudismiss`, because it needs to be fired on the element that was the originator of the context menu, not the context menu itself.

Let me know if I understood your question correctly. If so, https://github.com/openui/open-ui/issues/426 would be resolved by making the new `contextmenudismiss` event be a light dismiss trigger for popups. I think that part makes total sense.
