Bug Description

It would be very useful if the right-click menu options were
sensitive to whatever object was selected on the left-hand
toolbar.
What I mean is, apart from the basic cut, copy, paste tools,
have
the options change to reflect whatever tool you're using at
the
time.

If you're using the select and transform tool:

 - Rotate 90 degrees counter-clockwise
 - Rotate 90 degrees clockwise
 - Flip section horizontally
 - Flip section vertically
 - Lower selection to bottom
 - Lower selection one step
 - Raise selection one step
 - Raise selection to top

If you're using the node editor:

 - Insert new node
 - Delete selected node
 - Join paths at selected nodes
 - Join paths at selected nodes with new segment
 - Split path between two non-endpoint nodes
 - Break path at selected nodes
 - Make nodes corner
 - Make nodes smooth
 - Make nodes symmetric
 - Make segment line
 - Make segment curve
 - Convert objects to paths
 - Convert strokes to paths

If Zoom is selected:

 - Zoom in
 - Zoom out
 - Fit selection in window
 - Fit drawing in window
 - Fit page in window
 - Fit page width in window

... you get the idea.

just want to draw attention to this report again.
I think context sensitive right-click menus are _very_ important. Maybe
somebody raise the priority?
