Context menus for selection in Track editor, Piano roll
and Tracker (probably, somewhere else). So that you can
select something (or select nothing to see some
standard actions), click the right mouse button and do
any possible actions with it, for example Copy/Paste/
Cut/Delete. Hotkeys alternatives should be present as
well.

    I was going to use the right mouse button for a popup tool
    selector. To allow quick changes betweem say write and
    select mode. This should also be possible with hot keys.

    Is this the sort of thing you are requesting ?

    Tool selector is also quite handy. But I mean something more
    traditional: edit operations in popup menu. For example,
    once I select something in track editor and click the right
    button, about the following menu appears:

    Select tool
    Write tool
    Erase tool
    ---
    Copy
    Cut
    Paste
    Delete
    ---
    Duplicate selection
    Loop selection
    Maybe something else

    When right clicking on track list:

    Add midi lane
    Add audio track
    Remove track
    Duplicate track
    Probably Copy/Paste entire tracks?

    In piano roll:

    Select tool
    Write tool
    Erase tool
    ---
    Copy
    Cut
    Paste
    Delete
    ---
    Transpose octave up
    Transpose octave down
    Transpose tone up
    Transpose tone down
    Transpose halftone up
    Transpose halftone down
    ---
    Duplicate selection
    Chop selection
    Arpeggiate selection
    Humanize selection volume
    Amplify selection volume
    Interpolate selection volume

    In tracker, when selecting a single column/row or several
    rows and columns, whatsoever:

    Select tool
    Write tool
    Erase tool
    ---
    Copy
    Cut
    Paste
    Delete
    ---
    Transpose octave up
    Transpose octave down
    Transpose tone up
    Transpose tone down
    Transpose halftone up
    Transpose halftone down
    ---
    Duplicate selection
    Chop selection
    Arpeggiate selection
    Humanize selection volume
    Amplify selection volume
    Interpolate selection volume

    And EVERY menu position should have a shortcut. Configurable
    one, see my request for Configurable shortcuts.
