Bring up shortcut menu for a found item

To complete Launchy as a shell replacement, it would be invaluable to have the ability to bring up the shortcut menu for an item right in launchy. Currently, when you hit the application key, you get a context menu for launchy's input field. It would be far more useful to get the menu for the found object.
Example:
Type "my doc<tab>myfile". Launchy finds the file myfile.txt. At this point I would like to hit the application key on my keyboard (or shift-f10) to get the shortcot menu for myfile.txt. I want to be able to rename the file, or view its properties, for example.

To expand to this excellent suggestion, perhaps also having the ability to right-click on the Launchy popup item and have the context menu display for that given file extension (i.e., Word document context menu items display for .doc items, link context menu items display for .lnk items). This would allow one to take a number of actions on a given item based on its native context menu (including displaying/editing the items shortcut, menu properties.
