Can the Browse Tool, Text Selection Tool, etc. be available via right click?

Reproducible: Always

Hi Enda, thanks for your proposal :-)

There is no technical limitation to do it but sincerely i don't see any reason to do it from an usability point of view, it just clutters the menu and doesn't really give you a faster way to access the tools than the toolbar or the shortcut or even the menu.

Do you have any strong reason of why it should be there?

(In reply to comment #1)

Since I am viewing documents, I want to see as much of the document as I possibly can, so I hide the titlebar, the page bar and the toolbar. Browse Tool, Text Selection Tool, etc. are tools that I use, and I would prefer to right click and select them than the only alternative which is using CTRL+1, CTRL+4, etc.

Sorry, shortcuts are there to be used, cluttering the RMB menu because you don't want to learn them doesn't seem like reason enough
