Description

Example

This is an issue in the new ("ooMenu" based) suggester.

A right mouse click on an item in the suggesters list (the blue "Wikidata" in the screenshot) selects the item, closes the suggester box but still opens the browsers context menu. This is very unusual and not an UX pattern we should stick to. A right click should open the browsers context menu. Not select something and not close the suggesters box.

Same for the middle mouse button. It selects the item and closes the suggester box.

Expected behavior: Either do nothing or open the clicked item in a new browser tab (if the item does have a valid <a href="..."> which it doesn't have at the moment).
