I think what probably happened is that Finder changed the way that
it displays contextual menus in Leopard. As you noticed, Finder now
displays the contextual menu items as a submenu of its main menu.
Yes, and I hate it. IMO, it's arrogant for Apple to assume that the
contextual menu items I use the most are the ones the Finder
provides. They are not. Now I have to navigate down into a submenu
every time I want one of those other commands, which is a pain. My
application has a CM plug-in that is popular with my users, and now
they're going to have to screw around with a submenu to access my
commands. This is my idea of a really dumb change. If they really
wanted to change something, they should have added the ability to
specify which commands the Finder puts in the menu so I could remove
the ones I never use. I do that for my CM commands, so only the ones
people want are added to the menu, and even then only when
appropriate for the selection. It's very useful. Sticking everyone
else's commands in a submenu is not.
