Bug Description

$subject

I've observed many first timers both familiar and new to the concept of grouping look for these functions in the right click context menu.

Is there a reason we havent added it yet?

I'd also like to see clipping and masking functions in the context menu too.
Grouping and ungrouping are linked to an easy to remember, very common keystroke. Clipping and masking have to be accessed only through menus, so in my oppinion it would make even more sense to add those functions to the context menu.

No reason. Just do it :) It's easy.

Clipping and masking functions have been included, as well as ungrouping. Great! :-)
Why grouping wasn't added too?
