title: Suggest a quick workaround to prevent md-menu from closing on md-menu-item's click
body: <p>I am trying to prevent <code>md-menu</code> from closing on <code>md-menu-item</code>'s click. I have achieved it with the following fix in angular material's <code>menuServiceProvider</code>. </p>
  
  <p>Changing line 286 in <a href="https://github.com/angular/material/blob/master/src/components/menu/js/menuServiceProvider.js" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/angular/material/blob/master/src/components/menu/js/menuServiceProvider.js</a> would allow for this.</p>
  
  <pre><code>if (!target.hasAttribute('disabled') &amp;&amp; !target.hasAttribute('md-menu-disable-close') &amp;&amp;
     (!closestMenu || closestMenu == opts.parent[0])) { close(); }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But looking for an alternative to do this. </p>
