Right click won't bring up menu in browser

Here's a quick screen cast showing a state I got into where I could not a menu to popup when right clicking on a component. Note that at least once it did work. After I focused off the app and came back, it worked fine.

I think there are several things going on here.  First, you seem to end up in the "editing the text field" state a lot, which is caused by a "slow double click".  For that reason, I tend to select and right click over the component icon, rather than the name.  I actually have the same problem in Windows Explorer.  I often inadvertently end up editing the name of the item.  So I've trained myself to go over the icon, not the name in all applications.

 

But, I suspect that most of the problem is the "right click vs left click then right click" problem, as discussed here.  Fusion does not select on right click.  It requires you to left click first, then right click.  See the discussion on that other thread.  I agree that the behavior needs to be changed, and am gathering input about the correct requirements.
