One option would be listing all items that work for single folder requests onto the background context menu.

Patch applied in cvs HEAD.

BTW, a side effect of these feature is that the actions are not updated live when changing them with Nact, because Nautilus cached them. You have to close the window and open it again to update the background popup menu.
For the desktop background items, the only mean is to restart nautilus with nautilus -q (see Bug #122)
