So when the user wants the context menu to pop up after a delay then (push (cons 'context-menu (cdr event)) unread-command-events) is a less problematic way to do this. But for another case to pop up the context menu immediately, customizing mouse-3-down-context-menu to nil and still using the same translation functions like mouse--click-3-maybe-context-menu is not the most optimal way. To pop up it immediately, I see no better way than currently is implemented for C-down-mouse-3 because then C-h k C-down-mouse-3 works smoothly as well as Undo selected from the menu keeps undoing on consequent calls, etc. This means there is a need to create a new mode that when enabled will bind the context menu directly to the key down-mouse-3 and unbind mouse-3 from mouse-save-then-kill when the user wants to pop up it immediately.
