React 17/18 custom Synthetic Events

[lifeiscontent]

The Previous solution in #10135 no longer works for React 17 or React 18.

It would be really convenient to be able to craft events that react handles for custom inputs.

e.g. I have an accordion component and would like to add the ability to use it as an input, when the user clicks a button I'd like to dispatch a change event so their handlers get called.

+1 to this issue. I have a text input that I need to simulate the onChange event for which is no longer working after upgrading to React 17.
