I didn't find a high-level API for it, but if you're willing to dig into the pointer events, you can find the info.

Quick and probably not perfect code example:

Modifier.pointerInput(Unit) {
    awaitPointerEventScope {
        while (true) {
            val event = awaitPointerEvent()
            val nativeEvent = event.nativeEvent
            if (nativeEvent is SkikoPointerEvent) {
                if (nativeEvent.button == SkikoMouseButtons.RIGHT && nativeEvent.kind == SkikoPointerEventKind.UP) {
                    event.changes.forEach { it.consume() } // or similar, would need to check if this works nicely with other registered listeners
                    println("Right click!")
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

that works perfectly, thanks! Hope this will get easier in a release

I've added a comment about this on this issue, which is mostly about desktop, but web support can probably also be tracked on it, until someone says otherwise
