Summary Let users access the context menu regardless of javascript button handling

Some web pages intercept the right mouse button, to show a context menu of sorts, to make right-click remove items from a list or to simply suppress it entirely. I would like users to be able to always have access to the genuine context menu. I see two ways: Make WebKitGTK+ ignore javascript handling if Control is held while right-clicking. This would make any WebKitGTK+ client accessible. I would prefer that, but I don't know if everyone would agree about it. Make it possible to manually show the context menu that WebKitGTK+ provides. So clients could block button events and manually show the context menu, eg. webkit_web_view_popup_context_menu ().
