=====================================
personal opinion here, but I enjoy rtclick/contextmenu toys, because it
is, indeed, a couple seconds/movements shorter. Your hand is already
(usually) where you need to apply the action, so why move up to the bar
above,click,click -move back down to where you need to apply the
action, and done, rather than rtclick and apply the action
there..closer to where you want to apply it.

hope that makes sense. :)
