Custom global commands in the ribbon menu

Use case or problem

I would like to add certain commands like “Reveal current file in navigation” to the Ribbon menu for quick access on mobile.

Proposed solution

The ability to add custom global commands to the Ribbon menu like it’s possible in the settings for the Mobile toolbar.

If you didn’t come across it, there’s a plugin designed exactly for that: Commander

And it allows you to add commands all over the place, not just the ribbon menu: tab bar, status bar, file menu, editor menu, explorer, toolbar…

I have a similar request, though in my case it’s on the desktop.

I already tried the Commander plugin, which allowed me to add the “Calendar:Open View” command from the Calendar plugin.

However the new command doesn’t work. I guess this is because the Commander plugin gave me a warning: “This is a checked Command, meaning it might not run under every circumstance.”

So now I’m wondering, why do some commands automatically appear in the Ribbon while some can’t even be forced into it? Could anyone point me to where can I learn more about this, so that I can find where to file a bug or try to come up with some fix?
