I understand your point and would agree for most parts, but I'm not sure how standard is that behavior. I.e. Before seeing your message, I've never really right-clicked on anything. Maybe to bring the web inspector on an element? What I often do that is I see more and more not working is the ctrl+click to open a link in a new tab. Oh, actually, if I ctrl+click and it doesn't work, I will usually right+click and "open in a new tab".. So, yeah, if both doesn't work, then I won't be happy.

>Before seeing your message, I've never really right-clicked on anything. Really? I find myself using the right-click context menu all the time; "Open Link in New Window", "Save Image", "Copy" and (appropriately enough) "Search Google for x" I use multiple times an hour during normal web usage. Yes, I use keyboard shortcuts for these things as well, but if I'm on the phone or drinking from a cup then some shortcuts are awkward. Anyway, the most annoying thing about this sort of feature is that there's no obvious visual cues to help anticipate non-standard behaviour. I get the same mouse pointer icon when I hover over "Inbox", "Sent Items", etc that I do when hovering over my email subjects. Yet I get different behaviour when right-clicking either control. This makes for an unsatisfying user experience IMHO.
