RMB context menu could be better

Ever since the right click context menu was added many years ago, it’s always seemed to me like it was never finished. There are only control points and objects listed as possible candidates for RMB menus. It seems to me that the “Objects” heading could be subdivided further and allow the user to program some commands for more specific entity types. I’ve been running a Rhinoscript for years to add this functionality while I waited for it to be added to the core program.

Take a look from V5. Notice how the list of commands differ based off of the pre-selected object type:

It would be useful to have the ability to not only define the specific commands to be associated with an object type, but also to let the user define the object types he/she would like to incorporate into the context menu.

Thanks,

Dan
