	It's easy to hide the operations in a sub-menu.

	I think you do have a good point though - which is that that option
menu is just far too long; my feeling is we should think about
re-arranging it, and/or removing insensitive items [ restore original
size being one obvious one - I mean, how many people actually stretch
icons ;-] Similarly the 'Move to Trash / Delete / Duplicate / Make Link'
stuff seems rather verbose.

	Seth / Calum; any ideas on what we can do here:

	Some things are ridiculous particularly on eg. Desktop files - where
there are as many permanantly insensitive options as there are potential
ones ;-) 7 vs. 7. It'd be nice to know what other people / OS' do here.

	Regards,
