A little more about the suggestion:

What I'm suggesting is to have a way of scroll the list or a limited numbers of operations with a last option "More
Operations..." opening a new window with all the operations.

The problem exists in 6.1 as well.

Two more suggestions

1) Add "operation" to the "message properties" dialog with a "..." button similar to how "stereotypes" are done. 
2) Allow the operation to be dragged from the tree view of the model and dropped on the message to assign it.
