    Can I had a a menu item to an existing tree controller without "Do Something Else"

    As a prime example, when you click a node under Content,

    It shows

    "Create an item under XYZ"

    Then I see the items I can create.

    What I want to do is create a new section under there

    "Change Member Permissions for Test"

    Or optionally, I want it to show up as a new Tab when I click on the content on the content editor.

    I am using the TreeControllerBase.MenuRendering event to add my menu item to content, and it works. However I have to use the MenuItem.LaunchDialogView to make it work. If I don't it tries to find my view in umbraco/views/content and I don't want to put my view there. And SetActionUrl is private.

    What I don't want is to have to click "Do Something Else -> My Menu -> dialog opens"

    That flow get's missed by non technical back office users and is tedious. I'd rather it either show up as a tab on Click, or a section under "Create an Item".

    Also, I am using e.Menu.NodeId to look up the node for the tree. I only add my menu if the node is based on specific content types.
