Am I missing something stunningly obvious, or is there no built in control for the cross between button and menu that is usually used for an action menus?

Spectacularly so. ;-) For simplicity, you can use a borderless NSPopupButton and simply set the image to whatever 'action button widget' image you want. Set the alt image to a shaded version.

If you want the menu to line up precisely according to your taste, you'll need to use an NSButton and a separate NSMenu and just show the menu when the button is clicked, etc.

I'm happy with the former solution for most of my needs. Others like to make it extra pretty and the latter solution is what I see suggested the most - though I admit I have never tried it myself ... because I'm a lazy, lazy man.
