Maybe it's also useful to sync this settings to the Mac App and possibly other apps... an email every time it gets changed would also be useful, in case someone with your login decides to change it. And finally, in teams one should be able to control which member can change this setting for himself, and which not, and the team lead can also set a default what should happen on the right click.. Yeah, that's it.

We're also going to need a way for someone to report on the right click actions. Log the action, build an alert system to distribute and then auto generate an email letting someone know the alert is sent. The reporting should have control levels so the team lead can designate whether someone can see this report, share this report or print this report.

  and give me an API to query if a user likes the right click override setting off and on. "Gravatar for right click settings."

        Can someone get on crunching numbers so I can get a pie chart on how many users disabled the right-click, how many people never right-clicked (hey, maybe a tutorial-like tooltip bubble that says "Right-click me!" ?), trends in right-click usage over time and separated by geo localisation? That should be trivial to do, I'm sure.

        Sounds like a plan. Can we get some consensus on what tool to use for capturing these items and generating the burn down chart?

        No, really, please don't turn every comment page into a pun thread that would be an end to HN as we know it. Please try to keep it serious and technical, and down-vote if you can this kind of conversation.

        and yet I'm the only one that got down voted. Too little too late my friends.

        Can you also get in touch with the marketing department to create a new landing page with email opt in which will put all email subscribers in to a 3 day launch sequence to demonstrate this awesome new feature along with video tutorials on how to use it. Please include the usual A/B testing and analytics features. Regards, dolan

        What Github needs is a virtual octocat assistant that helps you with common tasks. "It looks like you're looking for Github brand image resources. - Have you tried right-clicking on the Github logo?"
