If you create your own MenuManager for some reason, you can fill it in
just the same as the main menu bar by getting the IMenuService and then
using populateContributions on the manager, with the locationURI you want.

You can either use IMenuService to populate your MenuManager from the
org.eclipse.ui.menus extension point, or you can simply add
CommandContributionItems (construct them with
CommandContributionItemParameter).
