The other way to force the card to be selected is to double click somewhere where there are no visible objects. This will open the Card Inspector at which point the menus will work accordingly.

Right clicking on the card seems to force the IDE to focus on the card itself. Neat trick. It also reveals that the IDE was written and intended to allow cut/copy/paste/duplicate cards, but somehow the ability to "click" on a card is what is missing.
