Description

Currently you can create an entirely new, custom, applications menu and add a plugin to the panel in order to open it. There is also xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu that allows one to configure a shortcut to open the main menu. But there is no way to configure a shortcut to a custom menu. My proposal is to add an optional argument to xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu so that it popups a specific menu. This way you get something similar to openbox menus that can be taylored to many, non predefined, tasks.

That is:

xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu [menu-file]

popups menu-file if given or the main apps menu if not.
