See [vscode menu spec].
- menu system is how commands get added to command palette

Q's
- Plugin menu vs Tools menu
    - can see a role for both
    - tools menu organizing workflows, more complex commands, apps
- discoverability
    - hard to find things in menus eventually, search is important

Imagine someone adding to PartSeg's submenu. Seems nice.
