... like KDE's servicemenus which have been there since sometime in KDE 2. those are actually accomplished using the DesktopAction feature of the .desktop file spec; it also supports things like preconditionals on mimetypes, application existence and dbus calls (the latter two are X-KDE entries, so not strictly in the standard)... for more advanced things there are full-on C++ plugins, but things like Thunar/sendto/ and KDE's servicemenus are completely doable without adding things to the .desktop file spec. -- Aaron J.
