All PrimeReact components have the so-called "Pass Through Method Options" which include a subset of the following three objects: props, state, and context.

Let's take a look at the TabMenu for example. It has all three objects. The context, which is of type TabMenuContext, has a property item and a property index. This allows you to query each tab item individually in the pass through options, and as a result, give each tab its own styles. For example, we can make the selected tab look different from the rest.

This is not the case with the PrimeReact Menu. There is no context in the Pass Through Method Options. Hence, there is no way to apply different styles to the different menu items (without creating your own custom JavaScript solution which targets certain elements at run time). This would be useful if I wanted to show a particular menu item as being "selected" (much like a selected tab in a TabMenu).

Could we therefore add a context to the PrimeReact Menu component?
