well since nobody had time to answer yet, I kept digging.
here's one bug: if you add "Settings" as part of the string which forms
your custom menuitem label, not just the whole String which could
collide with the Settings menu, but part of a custom string, it won't
show at all in the menu, and no error is thrown. "Parameters" is
acceptable, but thats all I know one way or the other.
see Alex's previous comment:

this code definitely does NOT clear the two standard menuitems,
"Settings..." and "About..." nor the debugger-player's "debugger" and
"show redraw regions"
var menuItem:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Our switch:
Change Parameters");
menuItem.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT,createParamPopUp);
var customContextMenu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
customContextMenu.hideBuiltInItems();
customContextMenu.customItems.push(menuItem);
Though it does add an item, and run the associated function.
Has anyone cleared the *whole* contextMenu out?
or
Taken control of mouse-rt-click events so as to avoid the standard
contextMenu?
