I'm finally going to get serious about migrating to Connect!
Easy question- Can we modify the basic right click menu? I really need to add the Element Selection tool to that.
Yes the following article outlines the process to remove some menu items but you may find helpful as a reference:

The steps I would recommend would be as follows:
1. create a dgnlib where your customizations will be stored.
2. store the dgnlib in a location to be read by MS_GUIDGNLIBLIST or edit the variable to read the file
3. Use the following link as a reference for the customizations you want to add:
https://docs.bentley.com/LiveContent/web/pub.xql?action=home&pub=MicroStation%20Help-v10&lang=en#docid=CustomizeDialogContextMenusDialogSection&addHistory=true&query=&scope=&tid=&filename=CustomizeDialogContextMenusDialogSection.xml&resource=&inner_id=&toc=false&eventType=lcContent.loadDocCustomizeDialogContextMenusDialogSection
4. restart MicroStation and check if the dgnlib is being read and if the customizations are followed.
