*Is Left handed, but uses a right handed mouse in his left hand ;) * I don't honestly see the difference between a desktop application and a web based one. Means of delivery is the only difference.
If the browser chrome is minimized and the application is started by a customised shortcut, it appears familiar to users who are used to desktop experiences. Add in extra confusions like Flash player versus AIR. You can deliver the same content on the desktop as in the browser (Its just how the swf is delivered that is different), am I to believe one should have right-click (context click, secondary click, whatever) behaviour and the other one shouldn't?

I guess you haven't considered folks that use a left handed mouse where clicking the right button fires the primary click action. But that's cool, I'll start using the term "left click" to mean secendary click actions. That'll confuse you.
