Description (last modified by Becky Gibson)

it would be nice to visually indicate that a tree item has an associated context menu. We could add an icon or even use a text style change. This will help usability as well as accessibility (since we will likely use a context menu to provide the same functionality as drag and drop in the future).

Initially assigning to dijit so Bill will see and comment.

Also, treeitems with context menu should get the ARIA haspopup=true property added.

Summary: how to indicate that a tree item has an associated context menu? → Tree: how to indicate that a tree item has an associated context menu?

Well, context menus in trees aren't even officially supported yet.

I agree that it would be better to have some visual indication of a context menu rather than expecting the user to realize they can right-click. Discoverability. Dependent on #6476, and actually I'll close this bug and just make a note there.
