Comment (by gabrimonfa):

 Wow I haven't seen that some actions indeed do something.
 Probably I've always tried "delete layer"

 So it's remembering which is last clicked layer even if I click on a
 symbol.

 I fully agree that the behaviour should be consistent for all the actions.
 Now, there is nothing remembering the user to which layer its action will
 be applied and IMHO, this is confusing.
 I think it would be better to disable also the other actions instead of
 enabling also "properties" and "delete layer".

 However, I'm ready to try to make also "properties" and "delete layer"
 work, if you think it's a better solution.
