I have a NSMenuExtra (I know its private, I inherited the code) with a few menu item. These are housed (parent process) by SystemUIServer AFAIK.

I want to know if it is possible for another application to send this menu an event to activate one of the choices, basically to simulate a user clicking on one of the menu items and have it perform the action associated with it.

Wouldn't it be cleaner to use AppleEvents or Distributed Objects to achieve the same result? Simpler yet, how about exploiting NSDistributedNotificationCenter?
