Description

I would like to build a bunch of little custom actions in Thunar, but I can't get to organise them properly since I don't know how to make 'child menus' (like that Create Document and in the screenshot below). Anyway, if I were to right-click somewhere empty in a folder in Thunar, a little menu pops up:

It would be nice if I could add there something like:

Create new: - Python script - bash script - ... git: - some_automated_process - another_automated_process - ...

...etc. I'm sure you can see what I mean. Since I could not find the way to do that, I decided to go with Templates (~/Templates), but for some reason Thunar is displaying some generic icon instead of (in this case) Python's icon (I'm referring to Script):

so, can I have submenus?
