Proposal: Context Menu

I'd like to propose we add a context menu for all levels of the TOC. While I am sure there would be other use cases, I'd think a good and first use case is "Run cells". What do you think?

@mlucool That seems reasonable; however, there is currently some debate regarding whether the ToC extension will be merged into JLab core, so not clear whether feature development is effectively frozen until its fate is resolved.

mlucool commented

I would be a fan of this being a core feature. Is there a timeline on determining this?

kgryte commented

Not sure the timeline. Partly because core devs are evaluating whether the act of merging into core should precipitate a reimplementation for purposes of tighter integration, etc. I can raise this question at the next dev meeting.

@mlucool See #141. Let me know if this works for your use case.

mlucool commented

That looks great! One thing that I assume was only for POC reasons was the need to "toggle code cells" first. It should always be available IMO.

kgryte commented

@mlucool Agreed on being more generally available; however, sadly, this would require a more extensive refactoring of the extension (and time commitment) to support this.
