I am trying to add a set of ActionContibutionItem that would display inside
a combo box on the RCP's main coolbar. Selecting an item in the combo would
invoke a the action associated with the combo entry. Not sure if that is
possible.

Not using an ActionContributionItem.

You can use a ControlContribution to add the combo, but you would have to wire up the combo SWT.Selection to do what you want.
