As the author of the menu bar thingie, I thought that having the right 
button bringing up the menus that are in the menu bar is a bit 
confusing. So the contextual menu is, in the case, triggered by right 
button instead of by the middle button / wheel click. Just because in 
any other environment I know, contextual menus are triggered by right 
button. That is a feature, not a bug.

(as a leftie, please swap right and left when I talk about buttons)
