Yes, they are in now!

But that would mean a lot of work. I think really don't like the idea. But
we will see.

I can't see this bug. I added only one class to a diagram and exported the
diagram as picture. In the png there are no pixels missing. So maybe I
misunderstood the problem...

We have this point allready in the feature tracker. I think you will have to
load the current CVS version to see if we really fixed all points or if
there are still some contexts menus missing.

Good point, please submit it to the feature tracker (see sig) in category
interface improvements.

I thought this was allready fixed? ;-)

Please submit it to the feature tracker!
