I'm not sure that's something we want to change - I don't recall it
ever being requested before, and personally I think I'd find it
annoying.
What I would be happier with is a drop-down menu on the View Data
button which gave access to the different options as the context menu
does. The button itself would then run the last option selected from
the drop-down menu (exactly as the plugins button does).

Eh? There s an explicit user action - you clicked 'View Data'

Can you get a backtrace from the crash?
