Well, the menu is needed for setting always-on-top and making a window be present on all workspaces. So if resize- with-right- click conflicts with showing the menu, screw it, we need the menu more.
I'm not sure about Alt or Super as window movement modifier; Alt is common at least and people are aware of its existence. Super is undiscoverable, so I'm afraid people will assume moving windows like that doesn't work in Gala.
