That what exactly what I was looking after. I think it would be not to
strange in the context where it occurs in my app.
The normal selection behavior is for selecting the active layer in my
view. The additional checkbox should allow to blend in/out the other
layers.
I couldn’t think of a better/more intuitive way to achieve this.
To implement this, I just thought about using a tableview in the popup
menu. There we have very similar behavior. You have a selection and
checkboxes. And clicking the checkboxes does not change the selection.

This sounds like a really nonintuitive UI. A lot of users
manipulate menus
by clicking and dragging, so releasing the mouse to click a
checkbox would
dismiss the menu.
FYI, Safari menu does exactly that with "Block Pop-Up windows" and
"Private Browsing..."
No, a checkbox would look rather different... here, let me mock up
what I was thinking the OP was asking for.

If what they're after is simply the check marks that Safari and
other applications use in menus, you can get that with -[NSMenuItem
setState:], like I mentioned earlier.
