Well, they are completey different. Or, put another way:
The right-click-menu (image menu) contains operations/plug-ins that work
on the active/current image. The filters and script-fu entries use the
underlying image as one of their arguments.
The Xnts-menu (the whole toolbox, actually) contains effects and plug-ins
(and other operations) that work without images (for example, there is no
file/save). Most plug-ins in the toolbox or xtns-menu create new images.
As a sidenote, the fully artificial distinction between script-fu-plug-ins
and other plug-ins confuses a lot of users (the same is true for the xtns
menu. I fail to see why a user must memorize that a specific plug-in is
wirtten in C, Perl, or script-fu, just to _use_it). All of these should
just be moved to their correct location, ending this confusig double-life.
