I don't know, but it would make a whole world of difference if we had right-click context menus.

It's just a guess but i think that's because Moho's history started as a tool on the short-lived BeOS which in itself was founded by an ex-Apple employee. MacOS didn't really have a right mousebutton menu until later so my guess is neither had BeOS or it was more limited. The "blinking" when selecting something in a context menu like i.e. "New Vector Layer" is definitely a leftover of early Mac/Be operating systems.

+1
And to add functionality to a lot of tools. For example left click to add point, right click to move point. Things like that.

it is not just about right click . All moho user interface components need to be replaced with a modern UI.
for now, I think some things are wrong. We didn't see any updates for a long time.
