Description Philipp Kursawe CLA 2009-03-28 15:41:22 EDT 
Could be defined like this:

<command
            defaultHandler="org.eclipse.ui.internal.handlers.QuickMenuHandler"
            id="org.eclipse.ui.window.quickMenu"
            name="Quick Menu"
            categoryId="org.eclipse.ui.category.file">
         <commandParameter
               id="org.eclipse.ui.window.quickMenu.uri"
               name="URI"
               optional="false">
         </commandParameter>
      </command>
      
Although maybe we could reduce the name of the parameter to "uri".

Then the QuickMenu could be used by key bindings and others. IDE could then get rid of QuickMenuAction and use this new command instead.

The handler was checked in as part of the work on bug 173649

In theory, it was meant to be used by binding the appropriate locationURI as the parameterized command (so it could be used from a keybinding, for example).

And how is the handler called? I could not find it in the latest I-Build org.eclipse.ui/plugin.xml

Right, the handler was checked in, but we needed concrete usecases and a more robust implementation before a command id was published.

I am using it right now, declared as you can see in my initial post. Its working great with a keybinding until now.
