I think the question is, would the OS actually allow it? It may not. I remember 
years ago, while working with FoxPro for the mac, that because Microsoft wanted 
to have compete control over their menu structure, their menus were not 
actually "menus" at all. Because of that, any utilities that did custom menu 
modifications would not work with FoxPro. QuicKeys comes to mind. I was not 
able to create an action involving menus, because there were no "Menu's" per 
se. 

Something to chew on I guess.
