macbooks.

Fair enough. As we move into an environment where touch is more important, 
right-clicking someone loses it's meaning anyway I guess.

It really depends on whether you believe in the browser as hosting "the web" or 
"applications". Historically it has been about the web but it seems that we're 
making room for applications as well.

It is a fine line. Even when using a browser to run apps I think the user 
normally has a clear understanding they are running it in a browser and not a 
standard desktop app, so while you can have some desktop like para-dimes, I 
think breaking web ones is not good. I also don't like drop down menus much in 
web apps.
