Extension: add a context menu entry?

[jfn]

Hello!

I’d like to integrate a context menu entry for an extension of mine. The target is Calc’s SheetTab context menu (definition is in /share/config/soffice.cfg/modules/calc/popupmenu/sheettab.xml).

I can configure this menu using the Tools > Customize dialogue. Thus I think extension integration is possible as well

How is this done in an extension AddOnUI.xcu configuration file?
I guess the syntax is very similar to what exists for the top level menu integration but I can’t find how to reference the wanted context menu name.

Thanks for any pointer.
