Consistency already suffers. Chromium pulls this trick, and it means
you can't move such web browser to other workspace, easily (as right
click produces useless Chromium's menu, while right click on normal
windows produces expected WM's menu, including "move to another
desktop").

If you are modifying protocol between WM and application, would it be
possible to arrange "right click on title" event to windowmanager, so
that it can display its full menu?

This request already exists.
