[FEATURE_REQUEST] Right-click on touch-enabled devices

[Lissy93]

Add ability to long-press to trigger the context menu for sections, items and widgets.

Currently user is not able to do this (see below video), making it impossible to launch items to an alternate target, like new tab.

Solution is to create a custom directive, that is able to listen for long-press events, and trigger an action (open context menu).

Holding on it just makes white outline around it. I prefer newtab over modal when on phone due to restricted screen space, so I was trying to "right click" on the dashy tile that defaults to modal in order to get the menu to show. Some googling suggested 2 finger tap as right click, either my fingers are too fat (they are) or it doesn't work. For now I edited the tiles and saved changes locally on phone.

On pc I am used to using middle click in chrome to "open in new tab". When I middle click on dashy tile I get a new tab with another dashy. Any way to get the underlying service in new tab regardless of what it defaults to?
