Useful additions to the context menu of flash animations

Is there a way to add the following entries to the right-click menu of flash animations?

- open flash animation in new window
- copy flash animation URL
- save flash file as...
- flash animation properties

Opening a flash animation in a new window lets you watch youtube movies or play flash games without having to see the content that surrounds it.

Quick access to the URL makes it easier to block servers that dish up flash ad banners by hosts file or other means of junk filtering without having to extract the URL from the source code.

Saving flash animations from the context menu saves you the trouble of hunting them down in your browser cache.

Can all this be done by a simple macro?

No. The right-click menu of flash animations is provided by the flash plugin. It's not under our control.

Any possibility of taming flash by other methods?

Maybe a "flash animations" entry in the View menu to open every flash animation in its own window, and the other options (save, properties, copy URL) somewhere in the Tools menu?


(of course the best thing would be if someone writes FlashAlternative, similar to RealAlternative & QuickTime Alternative winking smiley
