Optional commands with TC internal associations

As you know, the context menu (in windows) can have more options with shift pressed (RMB+Shift).

Can we hope to be considered this behavior with internal associations of TC in future?

In fact, can be used the native functions of RMB, in my opinion.

The additional items with shift should already work in TC. But how does this relate to internal associations?

O_o I found context menu item "Copy as path" in Windows 7 context menu with Shift. Also item "Pin in Start menu" is added. Wow, for folders there are items "Open in new process" and "Open command window"... Thanks for the hint, in earier Windows versions I saw only items "Run As..." and "Open with...".

Maybe eugensyl wants to have hidden commands that will be visible only when Shift is held?

As I see in registry, Windows needs to have empty REG_SZ parameter named Extended in shell actions that will be visible only when Shift is held.

Exactly. That's the point.

The internal association from TC is better than windows one.
But, for exemple, PDF extension can be open with many applications. I have about 7 application into TC internal association. Often I work with 2-3. Other I like to see only with Shift held, because I want to keep all options.
