The only sensible options I can think of to satisfy everyone would be "everything at top level" (as of now), or "everything in a submenu" (which groups them all together, provides a place to show the name of the image, and minimises the size of the menu).

Mozilla: has "View Image", "Copy Image", "Copy Image Location", (separator), "Save Image As", "Share this image", "Email Image", "Set as desktop background", "View Image Info".  Far too normal many IMHO, the menu height doubles over an image.

Chromium: has "Open image in new tab", "Save image as", "Copy image", "Copy image address", "Search Google for image".
