Well I've looked into this a bit more, yes.

The context is :
- for each menu action, I allocate a new profile, thus having a
  trace as 'na_object_profile_instance_init'..
- I add a weak reference on the NautilusMenuItem in order to be able to
  unref and dispose this profile
- I also install a notification on NautilusMenuitem with g_object_set_data_full
  (so using a GDestroyNotify function) in order to 
nautilus_file_info_list_free()
  the list of selected items.

I paste a trace below ; sorry if it is long, but executive summary is:

- when actions are at the level zero of the context menu, all works fine
- when actions are inside of a menu (I don't have tried with a menu in a menu),
  then the weak notify function is actually called on the menu, but not
  on its subitems
- in this later case, only when entering a directory, the first profile
  is disposed and the destroy notify is called on the selected items list.

Maybe I should'nt add a ref on subitems on the menus ?
This would appear to me rather like a work-around ?

I'm of course willing to go through Nautilus code but I go to ski next week,
so more on this on next one ;-)

Regards
Pierre
