Interesting - for one of the apps I made at work, it pops up a copy/cut/paste menu when the user right clicks into certain fields
So, fear not - for future apps that you make, it can be done.

Johathan,
Mark helped me quite a bit on the forum page. I did try to implement
that script in my stack. I modified a copy of the Rev 'ask' stack but
wasn't sure how to merge it into my stack to use in place of the default
stack.
What I did was a little against the rules and worked around using the 'ask'
dialog
with hiding and showing buttons and fields for the user to enter his
username
and password. If he 'right-clicks' on the empty field it automatically
checks
to see if text is in the clipboard and if true then pastes it in for him. I
figured if
someone is clicking in a blank field the only reason to do so would be to
paste
something in there. No need for a popup menu, which I got frustrated trying
to implement. I will have to practice using that somewhere else. I was in a
time crunch to get a functional program to a customer.
