Do you mean a graphical menu from the menu bar or the menu shown by mouse
clicks. If so, I am using none of those.

Also I should have made a better problem statement: "Need to have a pretty
interface that is *configurable* and shows the key bindings for that action.

For instance, I have a hydra to insert different Org blocks in org-mode,
and looks like this:

The idea is to press a binding, and then a contextual menu pops up with a
list of next valid key that can be pressed (and this does not necessarily
list *all* the bound keys.. that's one place where it's different from
another package: which-key).

I wrote a reply with bit more information about hydra earlier today in this
thread[1].
