Hello

That is almost correct. You need both a subclass of DataflowEditAction 
and something to put in the menu.

For example

net.sf.taverna.t2.workbench.design.actions.AddDataflowInputAction does 
the code to add the dataflow input and

net.sf.taverna.t2.ui.menu.items.dataflow.CreateInputMenuAction extends 
AbstractContextualMenuAction and puts the thing into the menu.

Yes, it is certainly possible with plugins. I am currently working on a 
plugin that allows the creation of nested workflows (and components) 
from parts of a workflow, and it uses this mechanism.
