Jérôme,

Not exactly. It means that users with one-button mice or older (not multitouch) trackpads can't get to the context menu. I use a Logitech 5-button mouse and my laptop is new, so it has multitouch, so I have no problem with context menus.

Yes, that's a patch I wrote to fix an accelerator-key problem (the Go menu bug). No, it doesn't really have any bearing on this except that it's also smoothing over a difference in Mac behavior.
