Description
On OSX 10.14.5, Firefox, conda-forge, ipympl 0.3.3 widget in jupyter notebook:
After selecting zoom/pan mode with the toolbar button, the zoom works normally (one finger presses on the trackpad, the other drags), but panning with 2 fingers held down and dragging brings up a menu in addition to executing the zoom. The menu does not appear with `%matplotlib notebook`. Evidently it is disconnecting the 2-finger-press from the menu when the cursor is inside the figure.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the two-finger pan/zoom behavior with the ipympl 0.3.3 widget in Jupyter Notebook on OSX 10.14.5 and Firefox. Compare it with `%matplotlib notebook`; done means two-finger dragging still performs zoom or pan without opening the menu.
