Only in a few cases, but dramatic generalizations are all the rage.
I speak specifically about open cargo container being moved way the hell down its right click menu, below name cargo container even, and activate gate being put at the very bottom of its right click menu. "Look at" also takes priority over both, because we all like to stare at gates and cargo containers, and use that feature frequently on those objects.
Some of the new placements seem as if they were done very arbitrarily, and only a couple make sense in terms of UI efficiency. There's others too, but it's late and i just want to say that quick.
In general the patch was good, great even, but the new right click menus have had me scratching my head at times.
My Warmest Regards.

thankfully, a lot of these are doubleclick actions.. er.. open cargo container at least.
tbh... players should be allowed to reorder.. and more specifically, retier menus as they wish.
as in, you can make menus as deep as you want, or have both warp to 0 and warp to 100 as first two items on the right click menu for any given object.

In the end it doesn't matter how they order the menus because someone will still complain about the position of something.
They should make a new right click menu where every option is located around the click point in a circle, rather than simple up/down.

After much debate it was decided that an unintuative right click menu would contribute to unconsensual pvp.

It's the impotent rage cause by this that makes me gank kittens.

CCP frequently rearranges right-click menu items during expansions or major patches in order to at least temporarily thwart macro programs, both for miners and ratters. This slows down macroing for as long as it takes the macro writers to change their code by xx pixels for each of any number of macro actions. It's not terribly effective, certainly not in anything but the very short term, but CCP's history of doing this kind of thing is both long and consistent.
With two more 'parts' to this expansion, look for more migrations of right-click items in the future.
As they say about the weather, in many places, if you don't like it, wait a little while and it will change again.

Being someone who has almost self destructed insted of showing info, and almost loosing a jump freighter due to not being able to find the jump to option, I can admit these changes are a pain in the backside.
The old order there was nothing wrong with, except for a few things and areas, which, still exist. Yes move trash, and yes move offline, but ffs dont change the whole frikken order, the new order doesnt make things any easier, and there really is nothing organised.
Take being in a gang, warp yourself and warp your gang, are 5 options appart, argh!!

How about the mouse scroll wheel moving down and hi-lighting the menu options so you don't need to finesse so much.
