Summary

The current context menu(Right-click menu) is quite horrible. For new players this is a barrier to entry to some degree. Not only is it annoying it also causes people to make mistake. For instance, reprocessing button is quite far at the top and trashing things is not uncommon to do by mistake. Entity made a great sketch for how the menu should look. It will cause less annoyance at the user and it will lessen the load on customer supports for people who made a mistake.
