This functionality is already implemented in the whisker menu and it would be good to have it also in the right-click context of launcher entries in the panel.

I see that Simon stated "The launcher plugin will receive a feature from garcon, i.e. showing the Desktop Actions of a launcher item in its right-click menu (i.e. “Open Private Window” for Firefox). This is really just a feature preview though, the code is in working but very hacky/rough state." [1]

From the image shown on the page of this feature, I would recommend that the 'move' entry be moved above 'remove' and a separator added before it, so it looks like so.

Launcher
- separator -
Properties
Open a New Window
Open a New Private Window
- separator -
Move
Remove
- separator -

The launcher will surely receive this feature for 16.04, I have already pushed the general feature that is necessary to achieve this to garcon.

Re-ordering the menu would affect all plugins (all plugins currently use the same context menu) - plus this is a separate bugreport/feature request in my opinion.
