Launching a process is by no means a "quick" operation. It is
imperative that menus appear instantly when requested and not cause
a great deal system overhead in the process, since users tend to be
trigger-happy with menus.
What is your actual goal? It seems silly that you'd need to execute
a process every time someone clicks on a menu in the menu bar.
