[news.eclipse.tools.gef] Re: add a menu entry

["Randy Hudson" <none@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I think our approach to building context menus is that disabled actions 
don't appear.  So, if you don't implement the delete command, the action may 
be left off the menu.

The action itself is pretty straightforward.  It asks for a command, and 
executes it on the stack.
