--- Comment #8 from Andre Miranda <andreldm at xfce.org> ---
@mg979 not exactly. sendto-email plugin just installs a desktop file in
<prefix>/share/Thunar that runs an executable (i.e.
/usr/lib/Thunar/thunar-sendto-email). Thunar loads files from this folder and
insert their entries in Send To context menu, it's hard coded and does not use
the Thunar Extension Framework (thunarx) in any way. What you propose is
similar but not as good as to what bug 14114 and bug 14024 ask IMHO.

Still there's the question of how the user tells to Thunar to nest actions into
submenus, what first comes to my mind is to update UCA's dialog as I explained
in comment 1, but now that we're talking about actions into separated desktop
files instead of uca.xml, using folders to nest desktop files and then create
submenus based on those folder could be a simpler approach.
