Nautilus sometimes changes menus after they've been put up because we do
asynchronous bonobo-activation lookups for e.g. plugins and availible
views which then gets added when the query finishes. Delaying the popup
until the query finished would make using the rest of the menu
(cut/paste/etc) slower, and often the query returns nothing.
