You can't.  There's no API to contribute to that menus (controlled by 
the internal window, I believe.  Same thing with the editor or view 
stack tab menus.  They're owned by the presentation and so are not 
currently extensible.

That doesn't mean that they cannot be extended, but AFAIK there's no API 
to do it.
