IOW, create an Inbox message for someone.

If you want to link a comment *directly* to a result you
would edit the result and enter the comment there. There's
fields for comments by the lab and by the doctore.

Nonetheless, it could be useful to generate a clinical
narrative from the result - pre-populated with the values -
and let the user add some free text to that. Which would
then get stored as a SOAP row with the results included
textually.

I added both as FIXME: comments.

It's strange that this should be selectable because the
GNUmed code explicitely makes this a menu *title*:

        self.__action_button_popup = wx.Menu(title = _('Act on selected 
results'))

Done.
