Thanks for the explanation. I supposed so.
So the issue is rather the default behavior;
I would suggest rather do nothing on right mouse click,
since that is how things work in all OSes I know of.
(And the app menu is visible all the time anyway...)
This might make sense if you are in using the Windows or Mac interface
styles, but I don't really like it. Having the main menu a single
click away without having to move the mouse is a good design from the
point of view of usability. A menu that appears where the mouse is
beats both a menu attached to the window and a menu attached to the
screen in Fitts' Law terms.
The difference on OS X is that most views tend to have some kind of
context menu, while most in GNUstep apps don't.
