Customize context menu in block diagram

I would like to add a custom right-click shortcut to all SubVIs viewed in my IDE. Eg after "Visible Items...Properties" I want to add "custom action" where I define what happens in "custom action."

 

Bonus if I can define it within a project and have it only apply to that project.

 

Is there any mechanism for this? I don't think an XNode works globally like I want.

Darren did a presentation a while back about adding all sorts of features including but not limited to right-click plugins.

That's the link to the start of the "right click" part of the presentation.  It is essentially just the same material paul_cardinale linked to, just as a presentation instead of a web page.
