Currently the context (right click) menu offers the same actions for all kinds of blueprints.

That is:
Manufacture
Material Efficency Research
Time Efficency Research
Copy
Invent
Reverse Engineer

But you can't do inventions with a BPO.
You can't do ME/PE research with a BPC.
You can't create copies from a BPC.
You cannot do further invention on T2 BPCs.
You can only do Reverse Engineer with certain artifacts.
...

Since the client can render each kind of blueprint differently,
it should be possible to offer only possible actions in the context menu.

They've only just made it possible to visually distinguish between copies and originals, adjusting the context menu may well be on the cards as an extension of this. Would be useful so +1

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...
