Comment (by Duggan):

 Me and mmlr came to the agreement that it would be beneficial for there to
 be a flag in the control to disable the default menu. The same thing can
 be achieved by overloading the control itself, but I think it would be
 beneficial to have that functionality in the control proper. There simply
 are times when that menu makes no sense. Plus, in that particular instance
 the menu itself covers other controls on the preflet which adds another
 mouse click to hide the menu and overall the presence of the menu in no
 way enhances the control or form and thus is detrimental to usability.
