Description Luke Horwell 2023-11-18 19:08:54 UTC 
SUMMARY
Activating items from a context menu is possible while holding the right click and releasing it while hovering over the item. Under Wayland, this doesn't happen for the Plasma shell (possibly if it uses Qt 6 Quick), but works in Qt Widgets applications like Dolphin (v24.01.75), GTK 3 applications and under the Plasma X11 session.

Areas affected:
- On a panel, launchers or applets.
- On the desktop or its icons.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click (but keep hold) on a panel.
2. Hover over "Enter Edit Mode" then release the right click.

OBSERVED RESULT
Under Wayland, the item did not hover nor activate. The user must release the right mouse button and left click the item.
Under X11, this works as expected.

EXPECTED RESULT
The menu item highlights and activates upon release of the right click.

Can reproduce. Not a Qt 6 regression though.
