In Windows, and also in KDE and other places, the right-mouse
menu is a useful addition to the way the user can interact
with the application. In the Gimp and also Dia, it is almost
a mandatory way. So, users should be made aware of this. I
had a bad first experience with the Gimp because I failed to
discover the right-mouse menu.
