Excellent question. You understand the issues completely.
It's ok with me if you do just use c.frame.top.menuBar directly. It
would make your plugin Qt specific, but that's a minor point.
To get a particular menu, use the getMenu command in leoMenu.py: Here
it is::
def getMenu (self,menuName):
cmn = self.canonicalizeMenuName(menuName)
return self.menus.get(cmn)
The call to canonicalizeMenuName means that you don't have to worry
about capitalization or other cruft (like ampersands) in the menu name
you pass as menuName.

I found that c.frame.menu gives me a leoQtMenu instance... but then I
gave up. Menus aren't all that terribly important to me at the moment.
However, my printing plugin is ready! It offers 12 printing-related
commands, allowing for printing nodes (with or without headlines) and
expanded scripts. It also offers print preview capabilities, so that
you're not caught off guard.
I'll submit a merge request once I've cleaned it up a bit and made sure
the unit tests pass.
