O.k., o.k., right-click or not is after all not what interests me ... The
focus is on _contextual options_ and convenience for the user. Having a tiny
button in each data row which opens a context menu seems like a good idea. I
wonder if the code which produces a drop-down-menu in the menu bar be reused
to open one at an arbitrary location of the page?
