The point made here was lots of smaller specific context menus dealing with each object on the screen.
So, it is the principle of right mouse click to see where you can go from here.

Other points:
1) Don't mix options with next actions. (separate place/button for local options)
2) Don't throw in paths that are not pertinent to next steps.
3) Don't do things in context menu that could be better done with supporting panels
