yes, completely agree, (fortunately got myself an additional display so usually I'm not suffering from space problems).

One feature that could really improve usability and also lower the entrance level (IMHO) would be right click context sensitive menus, possibly even structured into several submenus. Advanced 3d modellers and CAD systems could be an example. some subgroups could be selection, tagging, cut&paste, plugin related, geometry operations, info (authors,versions,...), user defined,etc
I.e. an alternative way to access common functionality. The main issue I see is that right click and drag is taken by moving the map.

cheers,
