when i search for this handler it only works in IE (and Netscape, if 
this browser still exists ?!). Double means that the call in 
oncontextmenu is the same as in onclick, so this calls are double. 
Validator always complain about oncontextmenu with "proprietary attribute"
I saw that there is a way to disable it complete in config_default:
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['BE']['useOnContextMenuHandler'} = 0;
Maybe we should use 0 as default.

the problem is that $this->doc->form is used which automatic adds a 
closing form tag at the very end. The only chance to get rid of this is 
to use something like $this->doc->formIsClosed = TRUE; and close 
manually before starting next form.
