I am a bit concerned that when many apps start doing this, the - already
quite long - context menu will really start to overflow. I mean, OO.o
documents are also zipfiles, so perhaps File Roller will want to add some
items too. And why not have a 'Print as handouts' context menu item as
well?

Is the added convenience of a 'Show' menu item so great that people will
prefer it over activating the document and clicking the Presentation
button? (this is what I see people do with ppt all the time.)

This is a good idea though!
