Short description of error
None of context menu options are working in Sequencer mode and d&d doesn't work either.
{F10277843,size=full}

D&d from Outliner into the Sequencer was planned, but never implemented, and then forgotten about, I guess? Also, it is inconsistent that drag and drop from the Outline to the Sequencer doesn't work, when it is working from the Outliner to the 3D View.

D&D of data-blocks doesn't work either:

Part of the selection problem happens because the Sync Outliner Selection option is enabled.
The other part of the problem is that the Video Editor is not notified to update.

I didn't investigate the other issues mentioned.

It is highly advisable to only report one bug at a time, as we can only commit a fix per bug and the report needs to be linked to the commit.

Because of this, this report cannot be confirmed and forwarded to the developers :\

I can edit this one and create separate bug reports later.

I guess you could say in this case that the bug is: the implementation of the exposed features are left unfinished.

The second issue mentioned is actually a feature request that was listed in #77408 (Continued Outliner Improvements Design) but apparently discontinued.

So, thanks for the report, but the issue should be closed as the bug tracker is only for bugs and errors.

I suggest contacting the developer to know the reasons.
