Is it possible to add Applescript actions to the dropdown menu (with the gear icon) that is in your Finder window, just to the right of the column view button? I'd like to add an action on my Mom's computer that attaches a file to a Mail message. I know that there's an automator script that does this, but you have to be good at right-clicking to bring up that contextual menu and she's a one-button user all the way.

If it's possible to add your own items to this menu it would be awesome - all the current literature seems skewed toward automator and I don't know the nomenclature that Apple uses for that Finder window drop-down menu so it's difficult to do searches for it... whine, whine, whine.
