Typeincorrect functionality
Summary0012120: To allow plugin to add item in the contextual menu
Descriptionthe pqPipelineContextMenuBehaviour implements a buildMenu() function. This a protected, virtual function as well as the QMenu Menu member variable. Thus it is possible to override the buildMenu function in a child class in order to manipulate the context Menu.

However, buildMenu is called only when right-clicking on a mesh (because of the pqView picker). Attached is a patched that makes buildMenu called at each right click in a view. The existing pqDataRepresentation's checks are performed inside the new buildMenu function.
Steps To ReproduceNot a bug.

commit 54e2de2539e319421a342353fa0c01bd41548533
Author: Kyle Lutz <kyle.lutz@kitware.com>
Date: Wed Jun 29 10:27:03 2011 -0400

    Changed buildMenu() to always be called for context menu
    
    This changes the behavior for the right-click context menu
    to always call the virtual buildMenu() method even when no
    object is picked.
    
    Based on the patch provided by Jerome Velut.
