[UI bug] long press on IOS does not open LRR context menu

LRR v0.9.30, Docker on Ubuntu

Bug Details
On ios devices (ipad, iphone) using the Safari browser, the long press action does not open the custom context menu; instead, it opens the traditional ios pop up window that previews the link. Similar behavior occurs for Chrome and Firefox on ios.

Effect of the long press on an iPhone on ios Safari and Firefox:

Expected behavior: a long press should open the custom context menu as shown below:

Not sure if this is something that is controlled by the browser or adjustable on the frontend, but might as well submit the issue for now

This sounds like a Safari/WebKit specific problem - Alternate browsers on iOS are just a skin over webkit.

Looks like it might be possible to disable the iOS context menu with some CSS, I'll give that a shot and we can see how it goes.

body { -webkit-touch-callout: none !important; }
a { -webkit-user-select: none !important; }

Hmm, looks different after all, CSS alone doesn't cut it: swisnl/jQuery-contextMenu#628
