I'm working with very small images (icons) all the time and the menu
just feels weird since I can only access a minimal number of items. 

On the other hand this is about a sensible default. Having it on by
default may help new users find the functionality they would fail to
find in a right click menu. Those are the people that would use gimp to
sharpen their image, crop it, rotate it and save to a different format.
People like me and Olivier would have no trouble turning it off. I think
it's less of a pain for us to turn it off than to spoil new-user
experience with a trivial UI issue like hiding basic functionality like
this.
