Smart behavior for Delete tool (addon icluded)

Deleting via the pop-up window is not very convenient. In most cases, the user expects a fairly predictable behavior when he presses Delete.

However, for rare occasions when you need to do something specific, this popup menu is very useful.

I suggest adding a button like Smart Delete with preprogrammed behavior for most cases.

I wrote a test addon that behaves in a rather predictable way. But I'm not a very good programmer, so I would like to see this functionality added to Blender by professionals.

How it works (hope you can understand my english)) youtu.be/BYHJvloYqQA

I made this addon as an example. It crashes Blender under some conditions that I can't track.

This would be a lot clearer and simpler (saves extra clicks).

i was going to make the same request then i thought lets do a search first, i am glad someone else brought it up , but this needs more up-votes, come on community, this is basic but essential functionality, context sensitive deletion is not that hard to implement in blender.

I have waited for this forever.
