How to add yet another menu to the app?
For example: the default menu is
File, Edit, View, Window, Help

I'd like to add my menu item + subitems
File, Edit, View, Tools (Options, Customize), Window, Help

How to do it?
When I do as in example, sipmle :
var menu = new MenuItem[]
{
new MenuItem
{
Label = "Tools",
Click = async () =>
{
await Electron.Dialog.ShowMessageBoxAsync("Go-go Pockemon!");
}
}
};
Electron.Menu.SetApplicationMenu(menu);

it replaces entire application menu.
