Thanks for consideration. I don't mean menu keymap but a pop-up menu
that simply returns a candidate, like

(x-popup-menu t
              (list "What to do with dropped file?"
                (cons ""
                      '(("Attach" . attach)
                    ("Open" . open)
                            ("Insert file: link" . file-link)))))

The menu is popped up at the location where the file is dropped, so
users only need to move the mouse slightly to select the desired
action, rather than always moving the mouse to the center of frame.

An example in dired mode is attached, and I feel it is a little more
convenient and efficient from the perspective of user interaction ;)
