Research direction

Start by comparing Cockpit's pkg/lib/cockpit-components-context-menu.jsx with the contextmenu component under react-topology's packages/module/src/components/contextmenu. Determine whether the react-topology component supports the stated Cockpit and other PatternFly use cases, then define the reusable component's scope and integration point. Done means a shared ContextMenu component is available for the plugin use case.

Description

enhancement

In Cockpit we currently have our own ContextMenu component , currently not really re-usable. Now that we are working on a plugin that also needs a ContextMenu, I've been thinking about making it re-usable.

In today's PF community meeting I noticed that the react-topology package also includes a contextmenu component.

Maybe it would be beneficial if that was moved here? I haven't looked into the re-usability of the react-topology's contextmenu for our use case but I can imagine there might be more projects using PF which could use it.
