I never noticed them until they were pointed out on the list. But I don't
see how that is an argument against including them. There are loads of other
useful OpenStep/GNUstep features that I never noticed until I read a little
bit about how to use the environment. Generally, I would say, as long as the
"core" behavior is available through more visible means, less visible ways
of doing something do not hurt users who don't know they exist.
Besides that, users used to other toolkits and desktop environments who are
trying out GNUstep are likely to know about context menus in those
environments and expect something similar in GNUstep.
