Description

Summary:

I wish to close the modal on secondary click (right mouse click). This works in your codepen demo for v.1.6.2: https://codepen.io/claydiffrient/pen/ZBmyKz?editors=1111 But not in my own demo with v3.3.2, see here: https://codepen.io/CharlotteA/pen/PozLwNw?editors=1111

Am I missing a new prop to handle this?

Expected behavior:

Close on right-click: https://codepen.io/claydiffrient/pen/ZBmyKz?editors=1111

Link to example of issue:

Any help very much appreciated!  🤓

Research direction
Investigate the current EventManager.js in react modal to understand how click events are handled. Review the change from v1.6.2 to v3.3.2 that removed the right click close behavior. Check the GitHub issues and PRs for any related discussion on right click handling. Consider adding a prop like 'closeOnRightClick' or re enabling the default behavior.
