Kendo-contextmenu: Right click on first level popup menu item doesn't open browser's context menu

[nchueva]

Describe the bug

kendo-contextmenu: Right-clicking on a link or button menu item in the first-level menu, as well as on the context template menu items, doesn't open the default browser's context menu. If you right-click on an item from the second and deeper menu levels, the default browser's context menu will be shown.

Bug: Right-clicking (to open the default browser's context menu) is prevented for first-level menu items of kendo-contextmenu but should still be available.

This behavior is especially needed for links to be able to open the link in a new tab from the default browser's menu.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Create a kendo-contextmenu-contained component. Open the context menu and right-click on a menu item that is located in a first-level menu popup. The default browser's context menu won't be shown. The right-click is prevented.

Runnable snippet on StackBlitz: link

Expected behavior
Right click on a first level menu item (especially if it is a link) of kendo-contextmenu should open default browser's context menu.

Hello @nchueva

The current ContextMenu behavior is by design. The reason to prevent the default browser behavior when interacting with the ContextMenu anchor and items is to avoid displaying both menus at the same time (as the Kendo UI ContextMenu component is meant to serve as a customizable alternative).
