[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] using commands/handlers in Common Navigator Framework

I've been working on integrating the Common Navigator Framework into a fairly large-scale RCP app. I've been very pleased with the results for the most part, but have been somewhat discouraged by the lack of documentation on how I can use the platform command framework in conjunction with CNF.

The rest of my app uses commands/handlers, but from what I can tell I can only use actions with CNF. So for example, to contribute menu items to the CNF context menu, I would have to use deprecated org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus and objectContribution extension points in my other plugins (as opposed to using org.eclipse.ui.menus).

I'm not big on the idea of having an app with mixed actions and commands. Seems to make sense to use one or the other. What is the "correct" way of doing this, if there is one? Have I missed any documentation out there?

Thanks,
Chris
