I understand it and appreciate your proposal very much, but I am used to it and
for me it is very intuitive and fast.  For instance LINE and AREA belong to a
shape and if I touch a shape I expect it in the context menu, because this
context menu "belongs" to the shape.  Of course, this is subjective and has
nothing to do with measuring distances, because from an objective point of view
if you think of distances, then you are probably right.
