Description Tim Buschtoens CLA 2013-01-17 08:40:26 EST
With the MARKUP_ENABLED feature of RAP it is possible to embed actual links in labels, trees, tables or lists. However, it is common for users to right click a link to open it in a new tab or copy the URL. This is prevented in RAP, a right click does nothing. I would consider this a bug.

The fix would be to allow the context menu to appear unless there is an SWT/RWT context menu attached, just like we do in Text widgets.
