As shown by Ariel Constenla-Haile's OOo workup describing the SFX2 based
context menu structure --
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/User:Arielch/Internship/Current_Context_Menu_Implementation
-- which mostly is how things remain in LibreOffice, the interplay of context
menu pop-ups in their component shells is very complex.

Meaning it is going to require a major refactoring to move the context menus to
a framework allowing user customization. The simple truth is that if it were
easy, it would have been done already.

Due to that complexity, IMHO not sure refactoring of context menu framework can
be top driven from UI Design perspective of seeking a common customization
core. And we may have to take it as is.
