Nope, this doesn't fly.  Then for debugging tried:

  (global-set-key [context-menu]
    (lambda (&rest args) (interactive) (message "=> %S" args)))

  (global-set-key [down-mouse-3]
        (lambda (event)
          (interactive "e")
          (execute-kbd-macro (vector `(context-menu . ,(cdr event))))))

but it prints => nil
