It was removed from the HTML spec in 2017 because of the lack of implementer interest (https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/2742). There is no other browser that implements this feature.

Items to be removed:

* `<menuitem>`
* The `type` attribute of `<menu>`
* The `onshow` event handler
* The `contextMenu` attribute of HTMLElement

It will first be hidden behind the flag `dom.menuitem.enabled` and later will be completely removed.

Bug to remove: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1680596 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1372276.
