(In #1084) On a related note, currently, the menu system architecture requires a separate plugin to be defined to declare it as part of "the context menu." See DuplicateImageContext for an example. We should seriously consider whether this is really the best solution for context menus.

  • Blocked By 992 removed

(In #992) We now use a single menu bar on all platforms. On Mac OS X, we use the "default Application menu bar" feature. Unfortunately, the default Application menu bar keyboard shortcuts do not work—at all. We work around this using the AcceleratorHandler tool, but that only works for Displays, and not windows of other types. So this problem still requires further thought.
