For me, shift-F-F10 always functions like the applications key. It's the right-mouse button that very occasionally acts differently. One area I've identified consistently is when downloading files from certain websites with Firefox. The right-mouse button brings up the necessary menu, but neither shift-F10 nor the applications key does. I have no idea, either. So I think you can assume shift-F10 will be a reliable substitute for the applications key.

Shift-f10 and right mouse click function 95% of the time just like the applications key. Once in a while they don't, but I haven't a clue why that is.
