[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] Add ActionDelegate Menu to RCP Main Menu

I have a popup menu that works, adjusting its content based on the state of the application. I'd like to reuse this code by adding its content to a menu on the MenuBar. I feel like my round peg just won't fit this square hole...

The popup menu extends ActionDelegate. In the RCP Mail example's ApplicationActionBarAdvisor.fillMenuBar method I've created a MenuManager and added it to the menuBar, but now want to add my "dynamic" menu that extends ActionDelegate to this menu manager so when people select the new menu, they see the dynamic content provided by my action delegate.

I'm sure I'm missing something very basic -- how to add the content of my popup menu as a "normal" menu off the main menubar (e.g., as a peer to File or Help). Thanks in advance for your help.
