Display GeoJSON layer popup at mouse clicked location #1227

Description

Is it possible to display popups for a GeoJSON layer at mouse clicked locations? It seems the event handler does not contain mouse clicked coordinates. One workaround is to use the polygon/polyline centroid, which is not ideal for a large feature where the popup shows up very far away from the mouse clicked location.

Reference issue: opengeos/leafmap#873
