Whether it is useful now is hard to say, but here is a comment from 2002 
that offers some insight:

offerViewerMenuFor: aViewer event: evt

code, but most of the functions suggested here don't work for non-Player 
objects, many aren't even defined, some relate to exploratory sw work 
not yet reflected in the current corpus.  We are early in the life cycle 
of this method..."
