spherical / wheel / radial / circular / pie context menu

Relates to: #3732
Replace the current "traditional" context menu with a spherical menu. Here are couple of npm packages to choose from:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-circular-menu/v/2.1.0

https://www.npmjs.com/package/circular-menu
Demo and sample code: https://jsfiddle.net/yandongCoder/kL4j7xor/10/

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-pie-menu

https://npm.io/package/react-native-circular-action-menu (has multiple implementations: https://npm.io/search/keyword:circular-menu)

https://npm.io/package/react-planet
example here: https://innfactory.github.io/react-planet/?path=/story/planet--default

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-radial-menu
Demo: https://antho2407.github.io/react-radial-menu/

The current menu is becoming bigger and bigger and soon won't fit the screen of a mobile:

You could hide functionality on mobile, make the menu scrollable or the menu entries configurable. Lots of ways to deal with this without having to resort to fancy circular menus. I like the menu the way it is and would be put off by any of the alternatives you mentioned, at least for desktop.

@codepunkt, so I understand you are not a fan of radial menus, fair enough.
What about multi-level menus?

I unfortunately don't know how to help, but this would be very useful for pen usage, because I don't always have access to my keyboard and radial menus would be a perfect fit for it.

Currently as an alternative I had to switch to Gnome, so that I can use Fly-Pie for pie menus, that is binded to keyboard keys. Not perfect, but better than nothing.
