This looks like the best design. Any part of the org buffer could have
text properties with a list of its available actions. Such a property
could be similar to 'context-menu-functions' handled by 'context-menu-map'.
But since it will be a plain generic list, it could be transformed to any
menu interface such as transient, context-menu, etc.
To transform it to context-menu, org-mode should provide a function
like 'context-menu-minor' that will create a corresponding menu
that will be added as a submenu of the default context menu.
Such integration with existing menus would be better than the current
implementation of context menus in org-mouse-context-menu that completely
replaces the context menu with its own.
