What is the typical (or otherwise defined) limit to the number of items present in a pulley menu?
If icons would display in pulley menus then left and right dragging in the activated pulley menu context could become meaningful. The upshot in this use case is that commonly handy OS utilities like copy
, paste
and screenshot could be made quickly available exactly as and when they are needed.
Please consider this class of pulley feature for a future upgrade.

In a pulley menu, the clipboard functions could be split as five icons on the same horizontal line. For text, pulling (swiping) down and left or down and right would highlight and allow selection of one of 'clear', 'cut', 'copy', 'paste' and 'history'. The context menu item:- text, link, labelled bookmark, image, file, media object - would be defined by the position of the user's first touch. This would work in both landscape and portrait orientations.
