Context menu with scroll buttons

I have quite a number of plugins with many of them contributing entries to the various context menus (project, java-files etc). This makes these menus very cluttered, even making it necessary to scroll through them because they are to large to fit on screen.

Many of these entries I don't need on a regular basis (e.g. Profile As ... , Assign Working Sets and lots of other plugins)so they should be in the menu but not in the context menu.

There should be an option similar to toolbar and menu entries in customize perspective to select, which entries should be shown in context menus.
