The `context-menu` is a bit weird at first, IMHO, but once I
understood the principles, it was quite easy to implement this!

Wow TIL  about ``context-menu-mode``. I've been working on some
personal tweaks to make mouse usage more appealing for the same
reasons in your article, and this mode is a much farther along than
what I had, not to mention built-in!

EDIT: `context-menu-mode` was added only in Emacs 28.1, which hasn't
had an official stable release yet AFAIK. Some of you will not have
it.

I totally forgot that it's new in v28.x! Thanks for pointing that out.
Also explains how I didn't hear of that mode either for so long :)
