I'm not claiming it doesn't make sense, but it's definitely not the
purpose of my suggestion.  My only purpose is to provide a contextual
menu bound to the down-mouse-3 event like many other applications do,
and try to do so without getting in the way of the pre-existing uses of
`mouse-3` in Emacs.

To a large extent, the content of this contextual menu is nor
that important.  I'd expect various applications to make use of it
(flyspell, xref, ...).
