It may have to do with how "object oriented" the interface is. I am currently working on a product with extensive drag and drop. The users work with "tangible" objects - pictures and pages.
In user testing, we repeatedly (way more than I expected) see users trying to right-click to look for additional functions. These are casual consumer users. My hypothesis would be that if an object is or appears selectable or draggable, right-click might be more expected. It may just be that if you are interacting with an object a lot with left-click at some point you feel you want to try right-click. The other finger gets jealous.
