Like to keep some distance between "Archive File" and "Delete File" as 
an example.

The option buttons in my app set segments of the GUI into various 
"modes." The modes can be pretty different, but have "groups of 
similarity." Dividing the button's menu up to represent these groups 
makes the menu system much more intuitive.

LOL. Good one.
