Codemirror v5 Dynamically Add Multiple Cursors

I'm using Codemirror v5.65.12. I know I can press and hold the CTRL key and then click to add multiple cursors into the editor. However mobile users don't have a CTRL key. My first attempt was using...

EventTarget.dispatchEvent() to trigger the ctrlKey to be down as long as a class is visible. I had no success with this attempt.

I'm also aware that Codemirror comes with an undocumented function triggerOnKeyDown with which you can trigger a keydown on Codemirror.

const ev = {
  type: 'keydown',
  keyCode: 13 // keycode for the Enter key, use any keycode here
};
cm.triggerOnKeyDown(ev);

However when I tried that using ctrlKey alongside onclick on the editor I wasn't able to successfully add multiple cursors for mobile in Codemirror.

I'm aware I can use .getCursor() to get the cursor's position and I can use .setCursor() to set the cursor's position but no matter what way I approach this I always manage to just move the cursor position to a new position instead of adding an additional cursor when I touch on mobile (specifically Android).

Is there a way in Codemirror v5.65.12 to dynamically add multiple cursors to a Codemirror instance that doesn't require a desktop (IE holding down the ctrlKey)? If not what other methods can I do to achieve this?

Looking at the code it does not look at the key events but instead looks for the modifier keys event.ctrl (and ev.metaKey on MacOS) in the mouse event:

There we can also see that we can overwrite behaviour via configureMouse, which will add a new cursor when we return {addNew:true} (for more info search for configureMouse on https://codemirror.net/5/doc/manual.html#config)

var multiselectCheckbox = document.querySelector("#multi");
var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea(document.querySelector("#code"), {
  lineNumbers: true,
  configureMouse: (cm, repeat, ev) => {
    if (multiselectCheckbox.checked) {
      return {
        addNew: true
      }
    } else {
      return {}
    }
  }
});
