Then I guess the only way that will work is if the rewrite from `down-mouse-3`
to `context-menu` is performed directly via
`input-decode-map/function-key-map/key-translation-map`.

Of course, you can also forgo rewriting to `context-menu` and
have the `down-mouse-3` event directly bring up the menu.
