It wasn't really that useful a feature so we removed it to reduce clutter.

It doesn't work on PPC, or in the Message Box, both these issues will be
fixed shortly.

There is a Script button on the Toolbar, in the menu bar, the command key
shortcut is Command-E, you can hold down the control-alt /command-option key
and move the mouse over an object, and it is in the menu on the properties
palette.

Yes, this is the new default behavior.  You can alter it in the preferences.
It prevents screen clutter, and most of the feedback we have had has been
very positive.

Thanks for the feedback.

Kind regards,
