Would that perchance be #setInvokingView: ? If so, here are some thoughts:

	"Re-work every menu item of the form
		<target> perform: <selector>
	to the form
		<target> perform: <selector> orSendTo: <invokingView>.
	This supports MVC's vectoring of non-model messages to the editPane."

I haven't found this to be particularly helpful since I am generally very careful about setting the target/action of each menu item the way I want it and preferring it to stay that way. One way you can avoid this behavior is to use DumberMenuMorph in place of MenuMorph - that is the sole reason for Dumber's existence.
