Integrate into desktop right-click #2382

Describe the solution you'd like I have all my system tray icons hidden, so finding the Lively icon to edit the wallpaper is a bit cumbersome

Describe alternatives you've considered Right-clicking the desktop could have an Edit Lively Wallpaper entry, or dropdown with options similar to right-clicking the system tray icon.

Additional context I'm aware this may require editing the registry, so maybe make it an option to add the shortcut for power users?

This is a suggestion because I love this app and just want to make using it a bit faster. Even if nothing comes from this thank you to everyone contributing, you absolute legends

This won't work with the new contextmenu in Windows 11 and Store version of the app (desktop-bridge): image

But yeah an option sounds fine, actually you don't have to wait for an official implementation.. this can be achieved by batch files and commands: https://github.com/rocksdanister/lively/wiki/Command-Line-Controls

Maybe I should just create a script for this instead 🤔
