I'm not sure we do. We have ways of letting an action creating both a
menu item and a toolbar item. My opinion is that this should be done
through custom actions instead.

It sounds to me like emitting "add_widget" for popup menus would be
weird, because you'd have to do something like

if (GTK_IS_MENU (widget)) {
  our_popup_menu = widget;
}
else {
  gtk_box_pak_start (...);
}

I think bonobo has a bonobo_menu_popup for popping up menus by path.
Dunno if we need that (it'd basically just be gtk_menu_merge_get_widget
+ gtk_menu_popup),

Cool, thanks for working on this Matthias.
