I think we can all brainstorm and come up with a few different ways to
work what would be context menu like UI into the interface without much
trouble. The real reason for pursuing wasn't because it's unique or even
superior, just that it's an extremely common UI characteristic that I
come to expect to be apart of most interfaces now. I probably hit
Shift+F10/applications 200 times a day. But certainly I can use menus
or buttons or something to get context-sensitive options for my items
or, as Doug mentioned, tweak my dev environment and just make my own
dialog from the ground up. Hint: I probably won't do that one.

True, but one must acknowledge that menus, at least as far as I've
seen, don't usually change the number and names of their items, just
the availability of them.
I would submit that an application's recent file list counters that
argument.
