I just tried it on the desktop of my Arch system and I was always able
to get a context menu.  However, when right clicking this way, am I
always supposed to get the general desktop context or should I be
getting the context specific to the icon I'm right clicking? For all
my tests, I was sitting on the Trash icon.  The only time I was able
to get the Trash specific context was by pressing Orca+/ to route the
focus and then right clicking.  Am I understanding flat review
correctly?

Also, my other question about flat review is when you said you could
click outside of flat review; how do you do that? From what I
understand, as soon as one moves the flat review pointer around,
you're automatically placed into flat review mode.

Anyway, I never encountered a situation where the right click from
flat review didn't work.
