SUMMARY
File context menu only opens when RMB on filename text.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open directory with files.
2. Change view mode to "Details"
3. Right-click on a file line past (to the right of) the filename.

OBSERVED RESULT
File not selected. Context menu doesn't contain "Open With".

Windows 11 File Explorer has the same issue :(

EXPECTED RESULT
File selected. Context menu contains "Open With".

I expect this because when a file is selected by other means, the highlight
spans the whole width of the viewport. Therefore I consider the whole line as a
click target for a given file.
