Router-Link doesn't support v-on:click

This doesn’t fire the click event:

<router-link v-on:click="doSomethingCool" to="/">Home</router-link>

Is this intentional? If yes, what is the recommended approach to have Vue click bindings in Router Links?

<router-link v-on:click.native="doSomethingCool" to="/">Home</router-link>

For future reference, if you really need to use it as a Vue-event (not using the .native-approach), then you can do this instead:

<router-link to="/">
     <span v-on:click="doSomethingCool">Home</span>
</router-link>
