🚀 go-pugleaf

I was just wondering if we are ever going to get support for 
pop-up menus in WB1.4 or thereafter.

For the most part, I think the old menus are OK, but as screens
get larger, it becomes more and more of a nuisance to have to go
up there to select something...

Also, based on what we seen on other PC's I think this would
be a good thing for CBM to standardize before programmers start
coming up with there own schemes.  The interesting thing about
popups are that they are sensitive to precisely where you are
clicking.  I'm not sure how easy it would be for this to be
integrated with Intuition.  Maybe it would be better to keep
the actual popup menu functions outside of Intuition in a
popup-library.  Then the application could watch for mouse
button events and handle the popup stuff itself.  Does this
sound like a reasonable method?
