I would like to suggest chrome="hidden" instead of chrome="disabled". Disabled is normally related to grayed out widgets on the web (<input disabled>) and not hidden elements (<input type="hidden">, display: none or visibility: collapse).
And yes please leave some form of widget in the menu to let the user access the default menu entries even if the site have them hidden. I'm not too picky on the design for it though. // Cork ----- Original Me ssage ----- > From: "Ian Hickson" <i...@hixie.ch> > To: "Jonas Sicking" <jo...@sicking.cc> > Cc: "Dale Harvey" <d...@arandomurl.com>, "dev-platform" > <dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org> > Sent: Thursday, 10 July, 2014 6:45:14 PM > Subject: Re: Intent to implement: Ability to surpress default contextmenu > items > > On Wed, 9 Jul 2014, Jonas Sicking wrote: > > > > > > This has been suggested many times, but the reason it's not part of > > > the standard is that it's user-hostile. > > > > This argument always comes up, but I don't think this is an entirely > > accurate statement. > > > > This is less user-hostile than the web platform is today.
