RMB gear to toggle video speedup

[comdev1337]

Clicking (LMB) the "gear" button used to toggle between normal speed (1x) and the last used custom speed (kSpedUpDefault by default). Apparently this was removed when the quality gear button was introduced. LMB now just opens/closes the dropdown quality/speed menu.

Changing the speed via the slider (when the menu is filled with quality options) is a pain the ass.
We can restrore this functionality by using RMB to toggle between normal speed (1.0x) and the last used custom speed.

alternative actions are usually mapped to ctrl+click in the app...

I am no UX designer but

1. Ctrl+LMB unnecessarily requires 1 more key
2. The actions you refer to (like opening a chat in a dedicated window) happen within a scenario where RMB is expected to open a context menu. The gear button is somewhat different: the "context menu" opens on LMB, RMB is unused.

@comdev1337 I recently wanted to add mention-by-name with RMB since it's unused but Preston said I have to use Ctrl+Click anyway

@ilya-fedin It took me some time to figure out what you actually meant by "mention-by-name with Ctrl+Click". I initially assumed you mean Ctrl+Clicking a user in the chat members list would add a mention in the "Write a message..." text field. This would have been more useful imo.
