What I meant is that in Firefox [mouse-3] on a tab pops up a menu of
tab-related actions other than activating a tab as [mouse-1] does.
Also [mouse-3] on a link pops up a menu of link-related actions,
on an image - a menu of image-related actions and so on.  Emacs could do
the same for the toolbar icons.  Even in Firefox [mouse-3] on the [Back]
toolbar button displays a list of all previous nodes.
