AnyEdit installation adds unnecessary 'org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus Test Action' pop-up menu

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Install AnyEdit on top of Helios SR1 (I'm using J2EE distributable) from 
AnyEdit update site (http://andrei.gmxhome.de/eclipse/ and category Eclipse 
3.5-3.6 plugins).
2. Restart Eclipse
3. Open any file in editor
4. Show pop-up menu in the editor

Expected output is to see only previously existing pop-up menus plus
newly added pop-up menu for AnyEdit's Convert-commands.

Convert menu shows and works OK, but the defect is that there is also 
unnecessary 'org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus Test Action' pop-up menu added
as a side effect of AnyEdit plug-in installation (see attached file 
AnyEdit_Test_Action_PopUpMenu_Defect.jpg). 

I'm running Ecplise on Windows Vista but that does not have anything
to do with the problem because it is probably just because of an extra pop-up 
menu definition in plugin.xml file or something like that.

It is definitely NOT AnyEdit. You can grep the entire source code of Anyedit 
for "Test Action" and you will find nothing.

You probably installed something else, or Helios SR1 itself has that issue. 
I've just verified that on the "classic" 3.6 Eclipse the issue does not appear.

P.S. You can type ctrl+3, then "Menu Spy", then select the "bad" menu entry and 
you will see more information about the menu and who contributed it.

Thanks for the info! For my Eclipse installation MenuSpy invocation happened 
via ALT+SHIFT+F2, but it revealed succesfully the contributing plug-in (see 
attachement). So AnyEdit was not one to blame even though I noticed menu item 
just after AnyEdit installation. What I really wonder is how my workmate that 
should have exactly same Eclipse installation (except AnyEdit) does not have 
the menu. 

Anyhow, my initial idea was not to blame AnyEdit in anyway, but just report the 
issue that I noticed right after installation. It might have been helpful for 
AnyEdit developers in case menu had really been left there due to AnyEdit. Next 
time I know to check the probable menu issues with MemSpy before giving any 
false reports :)
