It isn't empty if you select 2 shapes.

I'm not against adding this entry in Draw, just want to point out that it won't
have the same effect as in Writer. The "Add Text Box" command in Writer is
actually about attaching a Writer text frame to the given shape, not about
activating the shape built-in text engine like in Draw. It's not the same as if
you double click the shape, or press F2. That's why I think we should rename
this "Add Text Box" to "Add Text Frame" to avoid further confusion.

Also a general note about Impress/Draw:

Unlike Writer/Calc which have a single "draw" context menu for all kinds of
shapes, Impress/Draw have separate context menus for lines, curves, measure
lines etc. So whenever we change the context menu structure, it should be
reflected in all those popupmenus as well, for consistency. On the other hand,
if you could propose a single "draw" menu structure that could work across
several kinds of shapes, I'll be happy to look at making the necessary code
changes to use such a unified menu. Just let me know.
