User Interface Suggestion (something reasonable)

Put the "Restart/Pause/Suspend/Stop and the Devices Menu in the context menu of the parallels dock item.

Hi,

I use usually use parallels in fullscreen so I don't have access to the menubar with all the parallels options like:

Pause
Suspend
Stop
Restart
the Devices menu point

So to reach these I always have to pop out of fullscreen do what I wanted to do and jump back in again.

I also use virtue for virtual desktops, so I can easily switch between Mac OS X and parallels.

By switching back to one of my Mac OS X workspaces I also get instant access to the dock and also to the parallels dock icon.

Now we all know that the dock icon has a context menu that some applications already use to give the user fast access to a few functions without bringing the application the front.

Parallels should use the context menu of the dock icon to give fast access to the menu items i mentioned above.

Long story short:

Put the "Restart/Pause/Suspend/Stop and the Devices Menu in the context menu of the parallels dock item.
