Workaround:

When double-clicking a subdirectory in the column-view, this makes that
subdirectory the leftmost column ("opens it in the marlin window").
After that the files directly in this column can be interacted with by
using the rightclick menu.

Reproduce:
open terminal
touch test_806377.txt
open marlin
use the device "filesystem" -> home -> 'yourusername' -> try to rightclick the file (you will have nothing at all happen)
now leftclick ONCE on the directory 'yourusername' to un-select the file, thus closing the preview pane
now doubleclick the directory 'yourusername' to make this the start column
reightclick the file and you get the menu and can select the open with or any other option.

Status in Marlin:
  New

Bug description:
  When using the Miller Column View in marlin, there is no way to create
  a new file or perform the expected right-click funktionality on a file
  because no rightclick-menu is provided on files and empty spaces on
  the view.

  Oops - forgot to mention that this is on oneiric + elementary-dev ppa and in a pantheon session.
