Description

Description

The addMediaItemContextMenuEntry function doesn't seem to actually provide any useful information in it's onClick function. The label of the context item is provided, but any sort of ID or track/album/artist information is not.

The goal

Hopefully this isn't a misunderstanding of the documentation. I'm trying to add a context menu entry for a plugin where I can right click on an album, for example, I redirect to a new page, and utilize that right clicked song to populate the initial plugin data.

Research direction

Start with the addMediaItemContextMenuEntry entry point and the documentation referenced in the report, then trace the onClick callback contract. Done means a plugin can identify the right-clicked album, track, or artist from the callback and use it to populate its initial page data.
