You can try contributing different menu items based on the current
selection. This works with
org.eclipse.ui.menus/menuContributions/commands that include a
visibleWhen or with org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus/objectContributions.

Another option is to contribute a dynamic element through
org.eclipse.ui.menus, implement it subclassing CompoundContributionItem,
and then you can provide the specific items you want on every menu
aboutToShow.
