            Bug ID: 400647
           Summary: Inline rename context menu
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: view-engine: general

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Merge the right click context menu and the spelling context menu when inline
renaming.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
OBSERVED RESULT
EXPECTED RESULT

1. Have a text in the clipboard to be inserted into a file name
2. Take a file having word separators in the name, like spaces or dots, for
instance named "aaa bbb ccc.txt".
3. Left-click/press F2 on it, to enter the inline renaming mode.
4. While in renaming mode, left-click on some part of the file name, to
deselect the text in the name (that is done in the first place).
5. Left-click before a part of the file name, right after some word separator,
for instance, in the example above, after the space and before the word "bbb".
6. A spelling menu appears, proposing words like "bob", "BBS", options like
"Ignore", Add to Dictionary".
7. As effect, no paste from clipboard option is present. Here, pasting from
clipboard could be done from the keyboard only, by using Ctrl+V.
8. If right-clicking right after a word in the file name, like "aaa", a
different context menu appears, allowing to paste in the file name, for
instance ("Undo"/"Redo"/"Cut"/"Copy"/"Paste"/ etc.).

Similar cases could be added for different intended commands.

Additionally, if spell checking is intended, "Paste" command it's not enough,
if context menus are merged. In this case, "Paste" would insert the clipboard
content at the caret, regardless the selection, "Replace" would be a command to
replace the selection done automatically by Dolphin when right clicking in
front of a word.

The idea here is to have all the operations in the context menu available at
any time. 

I use this every day, lately, so it's at least annoying.
