Feature request: be an option when right-clicking in a textarea #48

To be more discoverable, There should be an 'Edit locally via textern' option in the right-click menu of a textarea.

Though this is an addon one knowingly installs, right? It's not a baked-in Firefox feature.

I'm not strongly against adding a context menu entry, though even convenience-wise, ISTM like it's easier and faster anyway to just left-click and press the shortcut.

Fair enough, but my editing in big textareas is intermittent, so i forget the hotkey so end up having to go find the extension configuration to look it up.

There are some sites that annoyingly change, or seem to disable altogether, keyboard shortcuts. A menu entry would be useful in those cases.
