What I still don't understand is why a function in the middle of
context-menu-functions should be able to say "I'm the boss" and
override everything that comes later.  Maybe this could be
implemented as well if needed, but the current implementation already
allows adding such a function to the end by specifying quite a large
value for the argument DEPTH of `add-hook'.
