Long answer: No, here are the reasons why: - We are attempting to get the UI more mobile friendly, and while its not 100% there yet, it is actually quite useable on a mobile device now. Mobile devices don't have a right click, so hiding functionality in there would make no sense.

- You can now right click and get the browsers menu instead of ours and you can do things like copy from the menu. - We replicated all the functionality from the menu in the buttons/kebab menu available on the right. Our goal was to have all the commonly used actions as a button, and less often used actions in the kebab to declutter the interface. We traded an extra click for some mouse travel - Lots of people didn't realize there even was a right click menu because its a web interface, and they couldn't find some functionality that was only available in the right click menu. Now that being said, we are still debating if it was a good move or not. For now we want to see how it plays out, if a lot of people want it back, it is certainly possible we will put it back. >> that is something you are interested in.
