Actually, PatternFly is focused on enterprise applications.
http://www.patternfly.org/community/
"PatternFly is a community of designers and developers collaborating to
build a UI framework for enterprise web applications"

It is based on Bootstrap, and Bootstrap preaches mobile-friendly and
mobile-first. But agreed with the previous point that we should respect the
non-mobile users since that's how the majority of people currently use
oVirt.

What are people's opinions on an "actions" button on the far right of the
tables?
See #6 here:
http://www.patternfly.org/pattern-library/content-views/table-view/#/design

Would that be an adequate substitute for right-clicking?
