Actually, this is quite a non-standard way of accessing menus in OS X and in 
Windows. BUT… you *CAN* Right click a parent menu and do something with it in a 
standard Menu. I think I would venture down that path. 

Someone gave me a few handlers a while back where I was able to modify the 
standard Contextual Menu behavior to insert my own items and then act upon 
them. Not sure if it would apply here, but you might want to go down that 
rabbit hole and see where it leads.
