UI: maintable: right-click menu: reorder items

[mlep]

In JabRef 5.0, when you right-click on an entry of the main table, you get the following menu:

Is your suggestion for improvement related to a problem? Please describe.
Some items are not consistently located: the nearby items are unrelated.

Describe the solution you'd like

• "Attach file" moved in the cluster "Open folder"..."Open URL or DOI"
• "Merge entries" moved in the cluster "Copy"..."Delete"

It depends on how you categorize things, I guess.
If you say the bottom group includes all entry-related actions/changes to an entry it is probably fine as is right now.
Can you elaborate more why you think your grouping is more consistent?

I would vote to keep it as is right now.
@JabRef/developers What do you think?

[koppor]

• Cut/Delete feels similar to merge entries (as one entry is deleted)
• Attach file is similar to Open file

So it would be fine for me to go with the propsoal.

@stefan-kolb Oops, sorry, I did not notice that your asked for my rationale.
But @koppor did it!... 😉

@stefan-kolb I guess the label "status: waiting for feedbak" is not needed anymore.

This issue has been inactive for half a year. Since JabRef is constantly evolving this issue may not be relevant any longer and it will be closed in two weeks if no further activity occurs.

As part of an effort to ensure that the JabRef team is focusing on important and valid issues, we would like to ask if you could update the issue if it still persists. This could be in the following form:

• If there has been a longer discussion, add a short summary of the most important points as a new comment (if not yet existing).
• Provide further steps or information on how to reproduce this issue.
• Upvote the initial post if you like to see it implemented soon. Votes are not the only metric that we use to determine the requests that are implemented, however, they do factor into our decision-making process.
• If all information is provided and still up-to-date, then just add a short comment that the issue is still relevant.

Thank you for your contribution!
