Let me explain more clearly. This idea  came up in the form of changing the 
context menu for the delete/trash entry. Then I extended and somewhat drifted 
away the concept to a more general setup. Imagine having a default 
uncluttered context menu. Pressing the infamous modifier would trigger a menu 
redraw that included even further options. I've seen this behaviour in OsX, 
eg. the printer tool. Clicking the add printer icon reveals a menu showing 
various printer locations (usb, net, sambe, par, etc...) Command+clicking the 
menu icon adds an advenced configuration option that provides certain 
functionality not normally used by the average user.
