I support this idea. Pie menus can be useful for all kinds of context menus
(inconvenient for menubars though, due to their location, which does not allow
placement of pie menus in fullscreen mode and them one menu on their own you
can hover through, which wouldn't be possible with pie menus.
I would also support an option to replace *all* context menus with pie menus.
But I don't really know how flexible QtPieMenu is.
Transparency, especially in the middle, is important, so you can see what you
actually invoked the context menu on, this should be possible with themes, if
it's not built-in.
What about large menus? Does QtPieMenu support ordering menu items in a ring?

Pie menus reduce mouse movement and make quick selection of items easier, as it
is the direction, not the distance that needs to be remembered. I also believe
they are cleaner and last but not least, they look much cooler, if they are
done the right way.
