Actually this is only in Windows... on Mac you can disable items in an
option menu.

True. This is because the pulldown menu style is used for the standard menus
in a menubar.

Not in WIndows; I'd recommend removing the item that should be disabled from
the list so it's not displayed, and then re-adding it when it becomes
available. OR, live with using a pulldown menu.

Not that I'm aware of.
