Since we're extending their Marker class, there's gonna be limitations as towards how flexible this event + event payload can be. Mainly, it's gonna be really tricky trying to stop event propagation to the map itself since all of maplibre's event are built using the map event listener. For example, they determine which element was "clicked" by checking if the event target contains the map element AND a marker in their own marker click handler. Their popup click handler is also tied to the map click event so we ideally we are not interfering with it.
Tries to keep the event payload more in line with maplibre mouse events.
