This feature is to the best of my knowledge not available in MSO.

Thank you for reporting this enhancement request! I can confirm that this is a valid enhancement request on:
Version: 4.1.0.0.alpha1+Build ID: ed8f9ec2caa8485691999e5565a79e451e1dcb
Date:   Wed May 8 18:48:38 2013 +0200

As I've been able to confirm the enhancement request I am marking as:

New (confirmed)
Enhancement - 
Low - while it could help in specific cases, for others they might find it to be annoying to have a longer list on right click, also what's to say we choose this feature over the other 100+ that people regularly use and what on right click context menu? the current setup is functional, the added functionality would be limited

Note: We need UX advice on this before moving it forward as they may say it's a no go (WONTFIX).

@bugquestcontri - are you able to email the UX team on their mailing list and see what they have to say? I'm curious to hear what outcome you'd find from talking to Astron and the few others who regularly contribute over on that side of our project.

@Joel - Thanks for looking into this matter.

As for contacting the UX team, I am willing to do it but what means UX team and how to contact this team? (I still need to learn a lot!!!)
