Upon playing with it just now, I have to admit that's a pretty major
usability bug.  I never realized there was a menu there either.  The
pop-up menu should come up instantly via a yellow-button click like
every other pop-up menu in Squeak.

So if people really care about this, let's see a bug fix for this. :) 
I'm adding a [BUG] tag to this post, at least.  (I know, bug reports
should go in Mantis but this will have to do for now.)
